Crafted for the player
Designed with the player in mind, LA guitars prioritise minimal
weight and excellent ergonomics. As such, the body of the
instrument is crafted from lightweight paulownia, allowing you to
play for hours without strain, and ensuring you always feel your
best during practice sessions.
The classic double cutaway design and contoured body shape offer
easy access to the entire fretboard, and the body's in-built strap
buttons make it easy to attach the included strap, enabling you to
jam in whatever position feels most comfortable for you.
High-quality materials
The guitar's neck is crafted from maple, widely used due to its
hard wearing and humidity resistant nature. Layered on top of the
neck, the guitar's fretboard is made from thermally treated poplar
laminate, an environmentally friendly option made using laminations
of wood which are bonded together in resin, making the neck more
stable. The stability of poplar laminate helps with tuning -
particularly in situations with quick changes in temperature or
humidity.
Reliable hardware
The LA's hardware is equally as impressive. The six-screw
vintage-style bridge system offers an extra edge to your sound,
allowing you to dive bomb, flutter or add subtle pitch variations
as you play. At the headstock, the six die cast tuners and two
string-trees make sure that you can focus on playing, confident
that your instrument is in tune.
Versatile pickups and controls
Each LA guitar comes equipped with three punchy 'single coil'
pickups and a five-way selector switch - a setup well known for its
use by players such as Nile Rodgers, John Frusciante, Jimi Hendrix
and many many more... The five-way switch allows you to select
different combinations of the three pickups as follows:
- Bridge Pickup Only
- Middle and Bridge Pickups
- Middle Pickup Only
- Neck and Middle Pickups
- Neck Pickup Only
Explainer: pickups are the magnets which take the vibrations
of a guitar string and transfer the signal to an amplifier - learn
more in the attached guitar guide!
These five different options give access to a plethora of iconic
tones. For example, the 4th position is often associated with a
funky, super clean sound due to it's particularly smooth and twangy
timbre. On the other hand, the 1st position is closely associated
with soaring guitar solos and rock rhythm parts, due to the way it
cuts through clearly in a full-band setting.
The three awesome pickups are also controlled via intuitive
volume and tone dials, making it easier than ever to get your ideal
sound - the tone knob allows you to quickly brighten/dampen your
tone, and the volume knob gives you instant access to adjusting
your level.
Why not make the most of the pickups and pair your new LA with a
great guitar amplifier, as in the available 10W amp pack and 15W amp & accessories pack!
What's included?
The LA's included accessories truly seal the deal. There's a

well as picks for hitting the strings. Then there's the cable for
connecting the guitar to an amplifier, and a gigbag to help keep
your instrument safe from knocks and scratches when you're carrying
it around. The LA truly ticks all the boxes for budding players
