Key Features
The greatest gift. A first step into music. The LA Electric Guitar is the quickest way to get stuck into the world of rock 'n' roll. Its single-coil pickups let you fill the air with delicate clean tones, or puncture it with a distorted wall of sound.
The slim C-shape neck makes it easier for you to learn and master chords. It'll probably take you less than 30 minutes to learn G major and D major - which is all you need to play Should I Stay or Should I Go. That's how close you are to being able to play guitar. And because of the contoured body, it'll sit in your hands and fit your body just right. The LA electric is the ideal first step into music.

We had one goal. Make a guitar with everything you’d need to kick-start your playing. Which is why the core elements of the LA electric are manufactured to our specific standards. This is a guitar that will help you learn, while being inspiring and comfortable.
Explore the genres. The three single-coil pickups let you pile through punk riffs, rock out through the classics, or slide through some soulful blues. Through the five-way pickup selector switch you will find all kinds of combinations to suit the style you want. The neck position pickup has a more full-bodied, percussive sound, while the bridge is more aggressive, with a biting tone. In the middle - a balance of the two, great for funk. Weather its lead or rhythm guitar parts, you’ll find a perfectly matched tone here.
Lightweight. Comfortable. Durable. You're going to play this guitar a lot, so we made sure it would keep up with you. We specifically chose Paulownia for the body, because it’s the perfect balance of being a warm familiar sounding tonewood, and one of the lightest most comfortable hard woods you can use to make a guitar. We carved deeply around the joint near the neck, which lets you get high up the fingerboard without anything getting in your way.
The full size, 22-fret neck is a breeze to get around on. Carved to comfortable modern C profile from a solid piece of maple and then sanded smooth. This is one of the easiest necks you can learn on and perfect for new players.
Learning means lots of practice, so we made sure the fingerboard is built to last. It's constructed from multiple layers of oiled poplar, which is laminated. This means its more resistant to changes in humidity and temperature - the main culprits of an uncomfortable setup. This improves playability and will make your learning process easier. Enduring every chord, riff, and note you'll play on it for years to come.
The Electric Guitar Amplifier by Gear4music included in this pack will get you out of your bedroom and into the practice space.

Parents and neighbours rest assured that the amp comes fitted with an all important silent practice, speaker-defeating headphone input.
