Product Description
The Leela is a meticulously crafted all maple guitar with with a carved maple top, laminate maple back and sides, and a maple neck. It features an ebony fingerboard, an ebony cello style tailpiece, and a gorgeous Blonde finish. Hardware includes a set of Gotoh tuners with ebony buttons and a Kent Armstrong built-in humbucker which gives a fatter richer jazz tone. The overall style of the instrument is reminiscent of the understated, “clean” look pioneered by the great Jimmy D’Aquisto and later developed by Bob Benedetto. In an effort to keep embellishments to a minimum, the fingerboard is free of positioning dots (there are still side dots.) This is from the last Leela 9/8/2020 Purchaser “Wow, you weren’t kidding.
