Seattle Select Legacy Electric Guitar + Tweed Amp Pack, Vintage Black Overview
The Seattle Select Legacy Electric Guitar by Gear4music is a must-have addition to any guitar collection. Comprised of a basswood body, the Seattle Select will instantly add presence to your tone, projecting a full bodied sound with an articulate mid-range. The inclusion of a maple neck and laurel fretboard offers great tuning stability and a rounded sound which compliments the versatility offered by the P90 pickups.
From full bodied riffs to soaring leads, take advantage of the dual P90 pickups. Providing more high and low frequency content than humbuckers with a greater output than single coils, you'll be able to achieve a seemingly infinite number of tones. The onboard vibrato allows you to add even more expression and emotion to your performances with minimal effort required.
The Seattle Select features a unique distressed finish, with the years of touring and days in practice rooms already etched into the finish of the guitar. Riffs of years gone by will feel at home on the comfortable 'worn-in' neck, and the added mojo of aged hardware and plastics will further inspire the classic tones and a no-nonsense attitude on stage which this guitar personifies. Every guitar has a unique pattern of aging, so no two are alike. Each one is tastefully aged in the places you would make contact with the guitar when playing, ensuring an authentic look and comfortable feel right out of the box. This bundle includes a 15W amplifier and chromatic tuner.

Reassuringly weighted and dynamic, Basswood is an excellent tonewood for those to prefer to play the guitar stood for extended periods of time, minimising the risk of fatigue and discomfort. Thanks to its weighted design, the Seattle Select offers exceptional volume and weight, making it a great choice for both rhythm and lead performance styles.
The Seattle Select's maple neck allows the guitar to effortlessly cut through the densest of arrangements. It offers a tight bass response, fantastic sustain and incredible levels of attack. This is a perfect choice for those who regularly use distortion pedals and strive for a tone that packs a punch. The inclusion of a bolt on neck adds to this, ensuring even more brightness. The deep brown colour and open grain of the laurel fretboard offers a tasteful contrast to the vintage cream pickups and tortoiseshell scratch plate.
High spec components
Each component on the Seattle Select has been chosen by our team of specialists to guarantee an unparalleled playing experience.
The Tune-O-Matic bridge boasts an all aluminium design and has been purpose built to increase resonance and sustain, as well as maintain perfect tuning whilst you perform. Utilise the on board vibrato to add instant expression to your performance. Harking back to the '50s, the inclusion of relic'd tuners add a touch of class, ensuring absolute tuning precision.
Capable of a wide range of tones, P90 pickups have an extended frequency range, providing you with more high and low frequency content. They sit perfectly between the bright, punchy sound of a single coil and the warm, thick tones of a humbucker. With a subtle midrange bump, the P90s offer more output compared to a single coil and as a result have more "grit" to their sound.
Maximum aesthetic appeal
Not only does this guitar sound the part, it looks it too. The retro-inspired vintage black finish ensures it will seamlessly integrate into any aficionados' collection, holding its own against guitars well above its price point. Our specialist ageing process means that each Seattle's finish and hardware has its own subtle differences in burns, scrapes, scratches and dents, ensuring you'll receive a guitar that is unique to you.
Thin, narrow and rounded. The Seattle 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 players.
The ageing process applied to the neck ensures a "comfortable", "worn-in" feel. This has been achieved by sanding away the lacquer and then rubbing it down with high grit rate sand paper to create the illusion of extended use. Finally, a dark staining is applied as the perfect finishing touch which is sealed into the neck with lineseed oil for preservation.
Accessory pack included
To ensure you're ready to hit the ground running, the Seattle Select comes complete with a comprehensive accessory pack, consisting of a lightweight gigbag, strap, cable, plectrums and Allen keys.
