However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

The LA Select Electric Guitar HS by Gear4music in transparent ruby red provides outstanding feel, versatile tones and compelling modern looks. Featuring genuine Wilkinson electronics, stainless steel frets and upgraded blackout Floyd Rose hardware, the trans red LA is suitable to accompany any player, at any point in their journey.
With a rich ash body and roasted maple neck, the LA select finished in transparent red provides an exceptional playing experience, offering a comfortable feel up and down the fretboard. Boasting two Wilkinson single coil pickups wired to a three-way switch, the red LA guitar is suitable for a wide range of applications. From heavy rock to smooth blues or jazz, there's something for every player to discover.
LA guitars also include the accessories you need to really make the most of your instrument - a cable to connect to an amplifier, strap, gig bag and picks. Plus, with the included Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo arm aka 'whammy bar', you can easily add unique expression to your playing.

Designed with the player in mind, LA select guitars prioritise high-quality craftsmanship and excellent ergonomics. Whether it be the contoured body, the punchy Wilkinson pickups or the slim profile neck, these guitars provide player-friendly refinements at every opportunity.
The transparent red LA select is built upon an ash body. Used throughout the guitar industry due to its warm and bright qualities, ash is a rich tone wood which has the added benefit of being relatively lightweight. The transparent red finish adorns a classic double cutaway body shape, making sure you not only look the part, but also have easy access to the higher frets for solos.
The smooth roasted maple neck has been tailored to a slim and comfortable 'C shape' and topped with a roasted maple fretboard - offering outstanding tonal transfer, responsiveness and durability with a modern 16" radius for superb string-bending action.
The transparent red LA is one of six models in the LA select range featuring upgraded hardware, this makes the guitar's tuning and intonation extremely stable and accurate. At the headstock, blackout machine heads, a genuine Floyd Rose locking nut and two string trees provide a smooth and accurate tuning experience - this allows you to play confidently, safe in the knowledge that your guitar has got your back despite any bends or dive bombs you might throw at it.
At the other end of the guitar, the Floyd Rose 1000 Series bridge system offers precise vibrato action which is designed to withstand intensive use whilst always returning to tune with ease. Easily adjustable bridge pieces offer precise intonation for each string, and the three-spring block is naturally more stable. In-built strap buttons mean you can play your LA select for hours without strain, and jam in whatever position feels most comfortable for you.
This LA guitar comes equipped with two high output Wilkinson pickups - one single coil and one humbucker - all wired to a three-way selector switch. This combination offers a versatile set of tonal options, allowing you to select the bridge or neck pickups in isolation, or combine the two in the middle position. The bridge pickup is ideal for chugging rhythm parts, whereas the neck pickup offers a piercing tone ideal for ripping solos.
The three awesome pickups are also controlled via 500k Alpha volume and tone pots, 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 hit the ground running and pair your new LA with a great guitar amplifier, as in the available 15W Guitar and Amp Pack!
The LA's included accessories truly seal the deal. There's a sturdy strap, which will let you practice and play standing up, as well as picks for hitting the strings. Then there's the cable for connecting the guitar to an amplifier, and a gig bag to help keep your instrument safe from knocks and scratches when you're carrying it around.
Here's everything you'll find in the box:
