Yes. A three single coil Strat has a broader tone range than a two humbucker SG. The Strat has a higher frequency output. Even SGs with three pickups sound darker but fuller. You can modify either guitar greatly so then all bets are off.

Should a beginner get the Strat of SG or doesn't it matter?

Well that really depends on YOU. Try both out see which body shape you prefer, which is more comfortable for you. Also see if you prefer the sounds of humbuckers (SG) or single coils (strat)


Which is better A copy strat or an epiphone SG?

An epiphone SG. WEll all depends, on you What style Guitar you like better), and what your playing, I've been Playing for Awhile and i play AC/DC, and other common 70's and so on, So for me i need a Guitar that will let me get to the Higher Frets, for solos, and I'm a Gibson Guy, And SG's Are awsome, great Guitars.. the only differences between a Epipone Sg and a Gibson SG, are the Name, and Designs, pickups, and just little things. the Epi SG 310 is ok, but i'd save up for the Sg G400. Better Parts, Sound , Wood, Playability, and so on.

What music is a fender strat best for?

A Fender Strat is best for all types of music, because you have the option of using three different pickups, therefore giving you options of differents tones. Strats are commonly used in classic rock, funk, ska, country, pop. Strats can be used for Metal but you'll find that the single coil pickups that commonly come with a Fender strat sound thin, therefore it would be better to use a guitar equipped with humbuckers.


Which is better Squier Fat Strat or Squier Jagmaster?

i currently own a Squier Standard Stratocaster, a Squier Affinity Strat, a Squier Jagmaster and an Epiphone Lucille. I have owned a Fender Standard Stratocaster in the past as well as a 90's Squier Stratocaster.all of that said, Squier's are very good guitars with bad reputations. having played and recorded for years now, i would say the Jagmaster is going to have a slightly higher build quality, and to me anyway, is just a bit more versatile. Jagmasters sound similar to an SG and have a short scale neck which i find very comfortable. very good clean and excellent distorted. and i love the stock pickups.the one thing a Jagmaster and no other guitar can sound like other than a Strat, is a Strat, and with the humbucker in the bridge position you can get Gibson-esque tones from it.i don't think you can go wrong with either, but a Jagmaster will handle metal and heavier stuff better and can still do surf and country, with more tonal choices. the Fat Strat will sound like a Strat, like Stevie or Jimi or The Band. neither is better to me just different. the Jagmaster is also more comfortable to me to play for longer periods of time than any guitar i own.Play a bunch and see what you like best. and as far as quality instruments go these are both very inexpensive, save up and buy both.

What is the different with fender standard stratocaster electric guitar and fender standard stratocaster hss electric guitar?

HSS refers to the pickups. The standard Strat has three Single coil pickups, and would be designated SSS. The H in HSS implies that the bridge pickup is a Humbucker. This became popular because many players find that a single coil in the bridge position sounds too thin and sharp.
