LA Electric Guitar - Rocksmith Guitar Bundle

A smaller version of our popular Los Angeles Electric Guitar, the 3/4 LA's solid body, Maple neck, Rosewood fingerboard, Korean chrome hardware and vintage tremolo bridge make it a well-crafted and extremely playable instrument.

The body of the 3/4 LA Electric Guitar is made of paulownia wood; a particularly lightweight wood that helps our guitars provide full tone whilst remaining surprisingly lightweight and comfortable. The three single coil pickups with reverse wound middle pickup and selector switch mean that this electric guitar is able to produce a wide variety of sounds to match the demands of many different playing styles, making it excellent for learning guitarists.

The Gear4music 3/4 LA Guitar has excellent build quality and an attention to detail that is especially impressive for an instrument in this price range. The high quality gloss black finish lends this electric guitar a classic style and universal appeal.
