Custom humbucker magic
Discover your full potential. Each of the custom wound, premium DiMarzio humbuckers loaded into this guitar shines with quality. With a medium output, they are incredibly dynamic – and can handle any genre. From sweet, airy clean tones to crunchy, overdriven dirty sounds, they'll give all your riffs a rich fullness along with perfect clarity. The five way pickup selector also gives you pairing options to expand your sound further and get that golden tone.
In the bridge humbucker, you'll find a strong, punchy response which lifts your riffs up to the stratosphere and delivers them with precision. It's powerful, but can be rolled back for a softer, subtler sound. And the neck pickup is warm and smooth - perfect for lead licks and wailing string bends. It'll track all your notes with complete accuracy, and it can also beef up chords to make them sound full and fat. Get ready for the greatest sound you've ever heard.
Rosewood all round
Beaming with warmth. The combination of a rosewood fretboard with a highly coveted, unique rosewood neck makes for the perfect playing experience and a tone which is out of this world. The neck itself is super slick and plays perfectly, with a gunstock oil and hand-rubbed special wax blend to enhance manoeuvrability. Your playing will feel natural and comfortable all the way along its surface. And the rosewood's resonance drenches this guitar's tone with a beautiful warmth for the perfect guitar voicing. A rosewood fretboard only builds on this, offering the same smooth, warm tone as the neck – as well as plenty of sustain. And it feels superb under your fingers. You can't go wrong.
Built to last
Fear not. You can take this guitar to the wildest of shows in complete confidence thanks to its stellar array of quality hardware. A Music Man vintage tremolo bridge lets you use the whammy bar for some scintillating vibrato – it also keeps your strings supported and your resonance strong. World class Schaller M6-IND locking tuners provide unrivalled tuning stability, and make string changes quick and easy. Albert Lee's signature is one of the most reliable guitars you'll ever play. From the unique, innovative shape to the superb tone, it gives the modern guitarist everything they could wish for – and more.
