LA Select Legacy Guitar by Gear4music, Sunburst - Nearly New Overview
The LA Select Legacy Guitar by Gear4music is a must-have addition to any guitar collection. Comprised of a basswood body, the LA Select will instantly add weight to your tone, projecting a full bodied sound with an articulate mid-range. The inclusion of a maple neck and fretboard offers great tuning stability and a rounded sound which compliments the single coil pickups.
From Rock to Pop, and Country to Jazz, the three single coil pickups offer a variety of tones, allowing the LA Select to grow with you as your style and technique progresses. The onboard whammy allows you to add even more expression and emotion to your performances with minimal effort required.
The LA Select features a unique distressed finish, with the years of touring and days in practice rooms already etched into the finish of the guitar. Riffs of years gone by will feel at home on the comfortable 'worn-in' neck, and the added mojo of aged hardware and plastics will further inspire the classic tones and a no-nonsense attitude on stage which this guitar personifies. Every guitar has a unique pattern of aging, so no two are alike. Each one is tastefully aged in the places you would make contact with the guitar when playing, ensuring an authentic look and comfortable feel right out of the box.
Please Note: Truss rod adjustment location may vary, either at the headstock or heel of the neck.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionQuality tonewoods
Reassuringly weighted and dynamic, Basswood is an excellent tonewood that makes the Select suitable for a broad range of musical styles. Thanks to its medium weight build it offers exceptional volume and tone, making it a great choice for both rhythm and lead performance styles.
The LA Select's maple neck and fretboard allows the guitar to effortlessly cut through the densest of arrangements. It offers a tight bass response, fantastic sustain and incredible levels of attack. This is a perfect choice for those who regularly use distortion pedals and strive for a tone that packs a punch.
High spec components
Each component on the LA Select has been chosen by our team of specialists to guarantee an unparalleled playing experience.
The 6 Screw Tremolo Relic has been designed to withstand the rigours of continued use, ensuring your guitar stays perfectly in tune whilst you performance, providing more "jangle" than its modern counterparts thanks to its low mass design. The detachable tremolo bar allows you to add instant expression to your performance. Harking back to the '50s, the inclusion of relic'd tuners add a touch of class, ensuring absolute tuning precision without compromise.
Single coil pickups are known for their bright, sharp and clear ring with the neck pickup producing a mellow but full twang and the bridge emitting a clean, acoustic-like resonance. The pickup configuration with five way tone switch also offers a crisp articulate tone with exceptional low end depth, punch and sustain that will separate your guitar from the crowd.
Maximum aesthetic appeal
Not only does this guitar sound the part, it looks it too. The retro-inspired sunburst finish ensures it will seamlessly integrate into any aficionados' collection, holding its own against guitars well above its price point. Our specialist ageing process means that each LA's finish and hardware has its own subtle differences in burns, scrapes, scratches and dents, ensuring you'll receive a guitar that is unique to you.
Thin, narrow and rounded. The LA Select's C-shaped neck is incredibly smooth, allowing you to progress up and down the fretboard with ease. It is ideal for a broad range of musical styles and will suit most players.
The ageing process applied to the neck ensures a "comfortable", "worn-in" feel. This has been achieved by sanding away the lacquer and then rubbing it down with high grit rate sand paper to create the illusion of extended use. Finally, a dark staining is applied as the perfect finishing touch which is sealed into the neck with lineseed oil for preservation.
Accessory pack included
To ensure you're ready to hit the ground running, the LA Select comes complete with a comprehensive accessory pack, consisting of a lightweight gigbag, strap, cable, plectrums and Allen keys.
