Carefully selected wood means that the Maybach Lester never exceeds the golden weight of 4 kg.
Lightweight Mahogany
Following the classic recipe, Maybach's Lester design is based on a mahogany body with a glued maple top. Meticulous attention is paid to the weight of the wood used in order to achieve the ideal centre of gravity on the belt and on the lap. On the other hand no Lester exceeds the golden limit of 4 kilograms total weight, whereby sound and playability benefit immensely and countless hours of play fun are guaranteed also after longer sessions.

Humbucker from Amber for authentic vintage sounds

Using the classic circuit with individual volume and tone controls, individual sound nuances can be adjusted.
