Quality tonewoods
The ideal blend of style and sound. Ash has been a popular tonewood since it was first used on electric guitars in the '50s. It emits a rich, full-bodied sound that compliments a wide range of musical styles whilst offering a gorgeous natural grain finish. The additional sustain and attack provided by the flamed maple top also makes it great for melodic bass lines.
The perfect bass for those in Hardcore/Punk bands. The LA Select's roasted maple neck and fretboard allows the bass to effortlessly cut through and ground the densest of arrangements. Offering great resistance to temperature and humidity changes, it offers a tight bass response, fantastic sustain and incredible levels of attack. The inclusion of these hand-selected tonewoods make the LA Select the perfect choice for those with expansive rigs who regularly incorporate distortion pedals and strive for a tone that makes a punch. This is reinforced via the inclusion of a bolt on neck, ensuring even more brightness to compete against walls of guitars.
High spec components
Each component on the LA Select has been chosen by our team of specialists to guarantee an unparalleled playing experience.
The LA Select features a single saddle bridge system. Unlike traditional bridge plates, the modular nature of this bridge will enable you to achieve a set-up wholly unique to you. This will allow you to determine virtually any string spacing and scale length you desire. This means your single string lines will sound more precise and chords will feel articulate as you'll be able to hear the individual notes that make them far more clearly in contrast to a conventional bridge.
Incredibly versatile. The inclusion of a split-coil humbucking bass pickup grants you instant access to punchy, powerful and articulate bass tones. Compared to covered, open coil pickups offer greater clarity and definition, and minimise the risk of feedback when in close proximity to high-powered amplifiers.
Effortless to play with maximum aesthetic appeal
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 bassists. Not only does this bass sound the part, it looks it too. The stylish denim burst finish ensures it will seamlessly integrate into any aficionados' collection, holding its own against basses well above its price point.
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.
