LsL Instruments Saticoy One B 22 HSS Guitar, Rosewood Fretboard, Monaco Red

PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE

Built right here in Southern California a little up the road in Santa Clarita, our friends over at LsL are cranking out some of the best vintage-style axes in the USA. This gorgeous Saticoy One HSS with a beautiful Monaco Red finish with a custom brushed gold pickguard is a stone-cold stunner, from playability and looks to its tone!

The One series helps bring LsL's prestigious quality to a more affordable price point, and we're glad to report that this one doesn't seem to make any compromises at all when it comes to what you get. The Monaco Red metallic matte finish is beyond sweet - it's almost like a Candy Apple Red that borrows some of the freshness of Fiesta Red, all with a satin sheen that really pops with the brushed gold pickguard and black plastics. It also has a gorgeous roasted figured maple neck that both looks amazing and is effortless to play and maintain. Before you even get to its tone and playability, this axe will instantly draw everyone's attention with its looks!

The LsL pickups sound fantastic, and have just the right amount of clarity and punch in all positions. This guitar's got that open and airy, vocal-like tone that vintage axes from the 60s were so well known for. The neck pickup gets warm and round without sounding loose. The middle has some really nice twang to it as well that carries some fullness while being bright and cutting through the mix. And for the pinnacle of versatility, the One Series humbucker in the bridge nails that low-output humbucker tone that blends perfectly with the single-coils whilst adding the warmth, fatness, and growl you need to rock out.

For the player who loves that vintage vibe of a beautiful S-style guitar shape and tone but demands high-end quality and modern playability, an LsL is very, very tough to beat.

Details

Our One series models are meant as an equally high quality instrument, with just a few minor changes to make them more accessible, again without compromising the quality. The most prominent feature is the finish and the lack of a name. One series S-Style models will only come in a matte finish with the most popular colors: Black, Vintage White, 2 Tone Sunbust, and 3 Tone Sunbust. We have also in the past done limited runs that come in other colors including solids like Sea Foam Green and metallics such as Silver and Gold. All One series also have the same hand-wound pickups, hand-shaped body and neck, thin nitro lacquer finish and attention to detail as any LsL has.
