What we say:
At A Glance:
LF Research Espada spawns from 50 years of development and research. Designed by Leo Fender's CLF Research company which was founded to explore bold next-generation guitars. The result is an evolution of Leo's original design.
Everything in this 3 Tone Sunburst Espada is engineered to maximise tone, resonance and sustain. From the MFD long-pole split-coil pickups ran through a switchable micro-preamp. To the Lock Bridge technology. Which presses each sting saddle together as a means of transferring string energy directly into the grain of the body.
There are many more features packed into this stunning guitar, making it a stellar choice for most genres.
Features We Love:
G&L’s PTB System
To really get the most sonic potential from the two humbuckers, the Espada features Leo Fender's PTB system. The Passive Treble and Bass system allows in depth filtering of treble and bass frequencies. This not only allows easy creation of creamy and airy tones, it also massively changes the way the guitar sounds through overdriven amps.
G&L Micro-Preamp
The on board micro-preamp is powered by a single 9v battery. Three settings are available, Off, On and On with a high frequency boost. This really widens the sonic palette of the guitar and has many useful applications. From evening out clean tones to making your solos really cut through in a mix.
MFD Long-Pole Split-Coil Pickups
Based on Leo Fender's original Split-Coil prototype pickups. G&L have taken the concept to its full potential by melding the design with Magnetic Field Design technology. Featuring adjustable poles for acute tonal adjustments and that's before the series/parallel switch to blend between buttery and sparkly tones.
Pros:
- Made In California USA
- Versatile range of tones
- Excellent tuning stability
Other Things To Consider:
- While the Espada covers a lot of ground, some players may miss having a tremolo. For this we'd recommend the G&L USA ASAT Special Clear Orange.
