HEX Guitars is a brand based in South Korea that specializes in products spanning the entry-level to mid-range price points.
They own their own factory in Indonesia and handle manufacturing themselves. This sets them apart from brands that typically rely on OEM production.
Because they don't outsource to other factories and the boss himself gets involved on the factory floor, they produce guitars of unexpectedly high quality for their price point.
The SE Series offers high functionality and excellent playability, catering to modern playing styles.
It incorporates specifications modern guitarists demand: a Floyd Rose bridge, stainless steel jumbo frets, an active circuit, and a coil-tap switch.
The sharp, well-balanced body is made of Indonesian Mahogany, the neck is Canadian Hard Maple, and the fingerboard is Indian Rosewood.
The neck is reinforced with a carbon fiber rod, ensuring the strength needed to maintain low string action.
The scale length is 648mm (25.5 inches), matching the feel of a Fender. The fingerboard radius is a flat 16 inches.
The frets are large stainless steel.
Stainless steel is characterized by its lack of tarnish and high hardness.
Stainless steel frets retain their shine indefinitely and are extremely resistant to wear, making them popular in high-end guitar brands in recent years.
The neck shape is slim, featuring a neutral C-shape.
It is finished with a satin finish.
The pickups are original designs installed in an HSH configuration.
They use original pickups on many models.
This isn't for cost-cutting; it stems from their confidence in the quality of their self-designed pickups.
Staff who understand music and play daily meticulously researched and designed numerous elements like magnets, wire, and bobbins.
The pickups feature coil-tap capability via a push-pull switch. When coil-tapped, the neck pickup utilizes only its neck coil, and the bridge pickup utilizes only its bridge coil, functioning as single-coil pickups.
The inclusion of an active circuit is a highly distinctive feature.
This lowers impedance, enabling wide-range sound output. Being switchable on/off allows you to change the character depending on the situation, which is a fantastic feature.
If you're a fan of EMG pickups, I highly recommend trying out this configuration.
The balance in the hands feels excellent. Even players accustomed to Fender or Gibson guitars should find it comfortable to play without feeling awkward.
It offers an incredibly wide range of sound characters, all with a high fundamental quality and practicality.
For those seeking modern, high-spec guitars like Suhr Guitars or Tom Anderson, this style should be a great fit.
Overall, it's an excellent product with high quality in looks, playability, and sound.
