Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

While it may have the Albert Lee name on the headstock, don't be fooled - this guitar is truly for any player! Used by artists as varied as St. Vincent and Mike Einziger from Incubus, this is a guitar that will take you just about anywhere and beyond. I was most impressed with the comfort, responsiveness, and stability of the tremolo; take a dive and you're right back in tune! The neck on this guitar feels amazing as well, with a decent amount of string spacing and neck width for both fingerstyle players (like myself) or flatpickers. I like to think of this one as the workhorse of the EB/MM line and you better believe this guitar will do anything you tell it to!

From Ernie Ball / Music Man Guitars

With its unique retro modern design and stunning array of vintage single coils options, the a Albert Lee is one versatile instrument. Lightweight, comfortable and perfectly balanced players will appreciate its fit, form and function. Sporting a southern swamp ash body, figured maple neck and a trio of custom wound Seymour Duncan pickups, this guitar is the the perfect choice for guitarists who want brilliant hi-pitched twang or smooth throaty tone wraped up in a hum-free electronic package. Whether you are looking for twang or shine, grit or grease, the Albert Lee will deliver, covering a wide ranging sonic palette all at the flick of the switch.
