Overview
A set-neck model -- the most traditional and fundamentals-focused option in the L Series. It will be the ideal choice for players seeking an L-body instrument in the mid-price range.
Traditional Set-Neck L-Body Platform at a Mid-Price Point
The L5 introduces a set-neck construction to the mid-range of the L Series, delivering enhanced sustain and resonance compared to bolt-on designs. A mahogany body with a maple top and flame veneer provides a classic tonal foundation while keeping costs controlled. Single top binding preserves traditional aesthetics without moving into deluxe territory.
Classic Scale Length and Comfortable Playability
With a 24.75" scale length and C-shape mahogany neck, the L5 offers a familiar feel preferred by traditional single-cut players. The rosewood fingerboard with Edgeless rolled edges improves comfort, while 22 medium-jumbo frets provide balanced playability for rhythm and lead work.
Versatile Electronics with Coil-Split Functionality
The LC Standard-2 humbucker set delivers classic output and warmth, while push-pull coil splitting on both tone controls expands tonal flexibility without complicating the control layout. A modern Tune-O-Matic bridge with aluminum stop tailpiece supports sustain and tuning stability.
