But I remember maybe 5ish years ago watching a lot of vids, when they were giving each guitar they made a girl's name (are they still doing that?), and there was something going on that made me look out for more vids.
Couldn't identify what that was if you put a gun to my head but it was there, and I'm not a Fender player.
Go back and find the LSL vids from before they were called Saticoy and whatever the T-style one is called. There's at least one where the owner keeps saying "Strat er I mean Saticoy" that was funny.
But it's the Tele style ones from back then I'm talking about, just something cool AF in the sound of those guitars.
this is a great vid
Its the main guitar I play now.
Love th contrast between the humbucker & single coils. If I had the money, I would go for a HSS like this...in daphne blue it would look even better!
Mines called Charli and is sea foam green

not sure if there standards have gone up through the years but it looks like the instruments are even better from before.
whats @peachguitarsdotcom thoughts on lsl guitars? How do they compare with the like of fender, xotic and suhr? In playability, consistently and mojo?
I watched your strat vid comparing some of the brands and I preferred the sound of xotic and lsl. But pickups have a lot to do with that.
i guess when you reach this level of guitar it’s personal taste and every guitar feels different,
there was a clip in there where I think you said if you would be super confident in ordering a Suhr as a custom order knowing it’s going to play and feels like every Suhr. Same for lsl?
A few years ago during my Strat search, I literally played guitars all over the country as I travelled through work...
The LSLs were all consistent and I really liked the quality of them all, and loved the light relicing on them. They were way above average compared to a lot of others. Think high-end CS or Masterbuilt maybe...
Like many left-of-centre builders, they do take a kick on resale. I'd try a few at Peach, and Guitar Guitar used to do them too.
out of interest what did you end up with?
yeah need to go and try a few
I wanted HSS so looked at Xotic as well and John said the LSL was more Fender vibe and Xotic was more modern and closer to Suhr.
Resale is all relative.
Teambuilt Fender CS is now £3-3.5 and will get you back £2-2.5 and the LSL is £2.5 so if you get £1.5 both cost you £1000.
But you’re probably getting better than teambuilt and not a million miles off master built.
