The Shijie SSS PRO model has three single coil pickups. Wow this guitar can really sing.
Single coils are always brighter and crisper, with greater note definition between strings, while humbuckers are often louder, darker, and heavier. Because it has a SSS arrangement when compared to a HSS setup you can tell the difference that is delivered by the single coils. Single coils are known to be great for soloing and scales, they tend to accentuate treble frequencies better.
The sound quality of Shijie guitars is amazing a real Stratocaster sound that can be varied by the selector switch to bring out heavy tones or the Stratocaster squawk. Their guitars have the highest sound quality that can go up against the largest guitar companies while being much cheaper than said models. This makes them an excellent choice for intermediate and advanced players alike, as they have features that are easy to use for players of almost all skill levels.
Shijie SSS PRO is a true Intermediate or advanced level guitar. Of course, a beginner can play it and it would even assist their playing. The variety of features that allow multiple tones to be created will make you stand out as a solo guitarist or in a band with that unique sound that can be produced. Shijie guitars are not low cost, but the quality of parts and production control make Shijie a supplier of superior guitars. They will always match or are better than their competitors within the same or higher price range be it Kiesel, Fender, Ibanez or PRS,
