Keipro KS20-R SSH Electric Guitar – Roasted Poplar Rosewood Fingerboard

The Keipro KS20-R SSH Electric Guitar is a premium professional ST style electric guitar built for intermediate and performing guitarists who prefer the warm smooth tone of a rosewood fingerboard with versatile SSH pickup configuration. Available in 6 stunning colour variants — Black, Metallic Ice Blue, Metallic Mint Green, Olympic White, Sunburst and Surf Green — the KS20-R SSH comes complete with a free premium padded gig bag at MRP ₹22,791.

What Does KS20-R Mean in Keipro KS20-R SSH Electric Guitar

The R in KS20-R stands for Rosewood fingerboard — confirming this model features a rosewood fingerboard for a warmer smoother and more rounded tone compared to the maple fingerboard KS20-M model. The SSH designation confirms the pickup configuration — Single coil at neck, Single coil at middle and Humbucker at bridge — giving you both classic single coil clarity and powerful humbucker output in one versatile guitar.

KS20-R vs KS20-M Which Should You Choose

The Keipro KS20-R features a rosewood fingerboard for warmer smoother tone — ideal for blues jazz and classic rock players who prefer a more rounded sound. The Keipro KS20-M features a maple fingerboard for brighter snappier tone — ideal for country funk and contemporary players who prefer a more articulate bright sound. Both share identical body construction, pickups, bridge and neck profile — the fingerboard is the only difference.

Premium Roasted Poplar KS-C1 Contour Body

The Keipro KS20-R features a roasted poplar body with KS-C1 contour design. Roasted poplar delivers warm balanced tone with good sustain while the KS-C1 contour provides ergonomic playing comfort for extended sessions. The roasting process gives the poplar superior stability, improved moisture resistance and enhanced resonance compared to standard poplar.

YHL Mercury S64E SSH Pickups for Versatile Tone

The Keipro KS20-R features YHL Mercury S64E SSH pickups — S64E-N single coil at neck, S64E-M single coil at middle and S64E-B humbucker at bridge. This SSH configuration gives you bright snappy single coil clarity in neck and middle positions and powerful thick humbucker output at the bridge. Combined with the warm rosewood fingerboard the SSH pickups deliver a perfectly balanced tonal character — warm and smooth in clean positions, powerful and articulate in the bridge humbucker.

5 Way Selector with 1 Volume and 2 Tone Controls

The 5 way pickup selector gives you five distinct SSH tone combinations. Position 1 bridge humbucker for powerful rock tone. Position 2 bridge and middle combined for punchy warm tone. Position 3 middle single coil for clean balanced tone. Position 4 middle and neck combined for glassy in-between tone. Position 5 neck single coil for warm full jazz and blues tone — particularly warm and musical through the rosewood fingerboard.

6 Point Die-Cast Zinc Bridge with Zinc Block

The 6 point die-cast zinc bridge with zinc block provides excellent tuning stability, improved string resonance and enhanced sustain for reliable intonation and consistent string performance during live performance and studio recording.

C Slim Maple Neck with Rosewood Fingerboard

The C slim maple neck profile measuring 0.8 to 0.85 inches with rosewood fingerboard delivers a fast comfortable playing feel with warm smooth tonal character. The rosewood fingerboard has a natural warm feel underhand that many guitarists prefer for extended playing sessions — smooth porous and naturally comfortable.

Rosewood Fingerboard with 9.5 Inch Radius

The rosewood fingerboard delivers warm smooth and rounded tone that complements the YHL Mercury SSH pickups beautifully — adding warmth to the single coil tones and smoothness to the bridge humbucker output. The 9.5 inch fingerboard radius provides a comfortable balance between chord playing and single note bending. Nickel medium frets, black side dots and ABS fingerboard inlays complete the specification.

25.5 Inch Scale Length for Classic ST Style Tone

The standard 25.5 inch scale length delivers classic ST style string tension, tone character and playing feel with better string definition and enhanced tuning stability.

Polymer Nut with 1.65 Inch Width

The polymer nut with 1.65 inch width and vintage white colour provides smooth string movement, consistent string height and reliable tuning stability.

Vintage White 3 Ply Pickguard

The vintage white 3 ply pickguard adds a classic premium visual detail that complements all 6 colour variants beautifully.
