Electric Guitars

Electric Guitars

Electric Guitars are the most iconic instruments of our time, and if you're looking for a new one, you've come to the right place!

The UK's Premier Electric Guitar Superstore

At the PMT Online Guitar Shop you'll find hundreds of different models for sale, from all the biggest brands. We are proud to be amongst the UK's largest stockists of Fender, Gibson, Yamaha, PRS, Schecter, Gretsch , G&L Guitars and Ibanez, plus many more.

If you're on a tight budget, we have a huge offering of affordable electrics that won't break the bank. Including top brands like Eastcoast, Squier and Epiphone.

Solid-Body or Semi-Acoustic?

Which kind of player are you? One of the reasons the electric guitar became the most iconic and significant musical instrument of the last six decades is its versatility: its sound has graced modern music of all styles from Jazz to heavy metal! Semi-Acoustics like the Gibson and Epiphone ES models are usually popular amongst jazz & blues players, whilst a solid body guitar is more common with rock'n'roll bands... but as Bob Dylan once said, "there are no rules", and pretty much any electric guitar can be used for any style.

Your guitar idols may also inspire you to choose a particular type of electric guitar: Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton are associated with the sounds of a Fender Stratocaster, whereas Jimmy Page and Slash will forever be remembered as Gibson Les Paul players. Fans of indie and alternative rock, on the other hand, usually love the tones of a Telecaster, Jaguar or Jazzmaster guitar. But you should choose the electric guitar that really stands out to you!

There are a range of factors to consider when buying an electric guitar: do you like bright & clean sounds, or fat and heavy? If it's the first case, go for an electric guitar equipped with single coil pickups, like players such as Clapton, Gilmour, Mark Knopfler or Jeff Beck did. Or, if you prefer a powerful sound with lots of sustain, ideal for heavy rock, go for electric guitars equipped with humbuckers, like a Gibson SG!

Left-Handed Electric Guitars

Buying the Left Handed Electric Guitar of your dreams need not be a headache. Fans of Jimi Hendrix will know about his re-stringing struggle and workaround solution to get his legendary Strat in a left handed version!

We are also one of the largest UK dealers of left hand Guitars. Many Left Handed guitars from Gibson, Fender, Ibanez, Squier and Epiphone and other key brands we stock are usually identically priced to the Right-handed versions, or available to special order.

So if you wish to produce the legendary sounds of Jimi Hendrix's strat the power of Pete Townsend's cranked Gibson SG or the modern experimental tones of Muse's Matt Bellamy, step inside a PMT guitar shop to discover your idea of heaven, or discover one of the largest selections of electric guitars online, here!

Beginner Guitars

We're proud to stock a wide selection of cheap electric guitars ideal for new starters and beginners. If you're just starting out on your musical journey, buying your first instrument can be daunting, with so much choice available. Thankfully, you can browse from your bed with our handy online filters - search for a particular body shape, colour or series. Or simply choose your budget and find an axe that suits your style!

Eastcoast Guitars are a fantastic beginner brand who produce some of the best cheap guitars we've ever had in our stores. Highly revered by Youtube Personalities and Reviewers, these affordable electric guitars make a great addition to any collection.

Alternatively, take a look at our Guitar Buying Guides, Top 10s and best-selling Electric Guitars at the PMT Online Blog.

7, 8 & 9 String Guitars

The main advantage of 7, 8 and 9 String Guitars enable a wider dynamic range from your guitar. Most guitars with more than the standard 6-string setup offer thick, beefy low end punch, which make them great for heavy rock styles like Metal, Hardcore and Punk.

Ibanez make some absolutely killer guitars in this category, with some cool offerings from Jackson available too.

We are a Fender Premium Showcase Dealer, so you'll find the biggest Fender stock, including Limited-Edition FSR models!
