The Music Man Albert Lee Signature Guitar combines both retro modern design with versatility to produce a truly unique guitar. Weighing only 6 pounds, this guitar is lightweight and comfortable, which allows you to play for longer without feeling the weight. Another advantage is that light guitars sound and resonate better than heavy ones. The Southern Ash body features a book-matched Maple top, and a sleek Maple neck, which all show a beautiful natural grain. This specially crafted guitar is only available in Pink Burst which is Albert's favourite colour scheme, and adds to the prestige of the instrument.
Music Man is renowned for their famous five-bolt neck joints, which offer a perfect alignment and prevent lateral shifting. This sculpted neck also allows smooth access to the higher frets.
Silent Circuit
One of the great features of this guitar is the silent circuit which is run by a 9V battery at the back of the body. This clever feature cuts out the undesirable hum of the passive single coil pickups to give you a clean sound. If that's not enough, the pick guard is also lined with aluminium and the body cavity is painted in a graphite compound to make double sure that the guitar is noiseless.
Seymour Duncan Pickups
These custom wound single coils can produce some of the best clean or slightly driven sounds that are available. Achieve a brilliant high pitched twang or a smooth throaty tone, which are operated by simple volume and tone knobs.
