Saga LC-10


Here is a DIY guitar kit that uses the iconic Les Paul as its base.

The Saga LC-10 features a single-cutaway body crafted from basswood that’s pre-routed for easy assembly.

The top of the body has a flamed maple veneer to give it a more premium appeal, especially when paired with transparent or semi-transparent finishes.

The neck is crafted from maple and already has a rosewood fingerboard. The headstock follows a default boxy shape, but it can be re-shaped to your preferred style.

All essential components for assembly come with the package, including two humbucker pickups, tuners, bridge and tailpiece, as well as all internal electronic components, knobs and pickup switch.

Features:

  • Building Difficulty: 6/10
  • Body: Single-cutaway Semi-Hollow Les Paul Style
  • Tonewood: Solid Basswood
  • Neck: Solid Maple
  • Fingerboard: Rosewood
  • Pickups: HH (Two Humbuckers)
  • Controls: 2 Tone, 2 Volume, 3-Way Pickup Selector
