I had a couple of Roberts guitars about 10 years ago. One was a 335 copy and it was very well put together, probably on a par with a Korean Epiphone. Quite resonant with (I think) Artec PAF type humbuckers and a fairly thick poly finish. I kept it until an Epiphone Elite 335 came up then sold it for what I paid (around £200).

The second one was a superstrat type with HSH, 24 fret bound maple neck and a rosewood board. Body looked like ash of some sort in a natural finish. Had a 2 point non-locking trem with roller saddles and a roller nut. Pickups were definitely Artec. The pots and switches were a bit cheap tbh but it played well and sounded good. The trem was ace, you could treat it like a Floyd and it never went out of tune. Should've kept it and upgraded the electrics.

There is or was an Ebay shop called Roberts that sold generic gear with "Roberts" on it that may have included guitars and amps
