High-quality build
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 pink 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 pink 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 maple neck has been tailored to a slim and comfortable 'C shape' and topped with a Jatoba fretboard - offering outstanding tonal transfer, responsiveness and durability with a modern 16" radius fretboard for superb string-bending action.
Wilkinson brand hardware
The pink 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 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, a modern 2-point tremolo bridge system offers precise vibrato action, and returns 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.
Versatile pickups and controls
This LA guitar comes equipped with three high output Wilkinson M-series pickups - two single coils and one humbucker - all wired to a five-way selector switch. The three-pickup and five-way switch configuration is a setup well known for its tonal versatility, allowing you to select different combinations of the three pickups as follows:
- Bridge Pickup Only
- Middle and Bridge Pickups
- Middle Pickup Only
- Neck and Middle Pickups
- Neck Pickup Only
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.
15W Electric Guitar Amp by Gear4music
The 15W Electric Guitar Amp by Gear4music is a compact and reliable practice/gigging amplifier with an 6.5" speaker, intuitive controls and a great sound. The super-simple layout makes dialling-in tones feel remarkably straightforward, and allows ample room for experimentation.
The 'Low', 'Mid' and 'High' controls on the amp allow you to dial in your favourite EQ, whilst 'Gain' provides a wide range of tonal possibilities from sparkling cleans to crunchy rhythms. Plus, by selecting the additional 'Overdrive' channel you can take your tone into a whole other realm, perfect for soaring lead lines.
The in-built headphone output is another innovative feature which allows players to use the amplifier's technology whilst bypassing the speaker entirely. This is perfect for practicing without disturbing the neighbours, simply plug in your headphones and play. And with the 3.5mm aux input, you can jam along to your favourite songs and backing tracks through the headphones or speaker!

The LA's included accessories truly seal the deal. There's a sturdy strap, which will let you practise 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 gigbag to help keep your instrument safe from knocks and scratches when you're carrying it around. This truly is the full package if you’re serious about guitar.
