Shergold Guitars has unveiled the Masquerader Standard, offering its super-versatile Patrick James Eggle-designed S-style at a more approachable price point.

The market for electric guitars under 500 bucks is keenly contested. Players are not wanting for choice. It pays, then, for brands to differentiate themselves, to offer something that the others don’t. On that count, the Masquerader Standard could have quite a case; it has a lot that makes it worth auditioning.
