Body: The L.A Studio Classic is crafted from solid alder, a tonewood known for its balanced tonal response and light weight. This gives the guitar a lively resonance and a clear, punchy sound.

Neck and Fretboard: The neck is made from quartersawn maple, paired with an Indian rosewood fretboard. This combination provides exceptional stability, smooth playability, and a warm, rich tonal character. The fingerboard also features a 10"-12" compound radius.  The neck shape is Tyler's "Standard" 64 profile, measuring .825" at the 1st fret and .950 at the 12th, and has "Narrow/Tall" frets.

Pickups: With a full compliment of Alnico 5 pickups, this model features HCS-JTS5500 single-coils in neck and middle positions. With a good low end and a strong dynamic midrange, these pickups are round and responsive. These are matched with the punchy midrange of the California Special, bringing with it a strong attack and good sustain.

Electronics: The control system features a 5-way blade switch, master volume, midboost preamp, and master tone controls. The active midboost preamp is a high gain/low impedance circuit that gives you lower lows and higher highs with a 2dB volume increase - on top of this, you can utilise the midboost control to increase the mids and output further. This preamp can be bypassed easily with the touch of a button for passive tones or added in to give some extra "oomf" at the perfect moments. It also features individual series/parallel buttons for each pickup.

Bridge and Hardware: The L.A Studio Classic is equipped with a Gotoh two-post tremolo with James Tyler branded bent steel saddles, offering excellent tuning stability and smooth performance. Locking Hipshot tuners add to the guitar's reliability, ensuring that it stays in tune even during heavy playing sessions.

Case: The guitar comes with a Tyler Signature Hardshell Case, providing premium protection and durability.

James Tyler guitars offer an exceptional experience in every aspect. Even the selector switch is a joy to use! Once you hold one, you'll instantly recognise the sheer quality and craftsmanship. Tyler's distinctive design make the L.A Studio Classic a guitar that is as visually striking as it is sonically powerful. Whether you're a studio professional or a live performer, this guitar can handle anything from smooth clean tones to high-gain distortion with ease.
