Artist AS1 Electric Guitar w/HSS Pickups & Accessories
From $249
This guitar pack contains all the essential accessories needed to get started, including a mini-amplifier for practice.
Kickstart your musical adventure with our Artist ASP Electric Guitar Pack, designed to provide everything you need to begin playing right out of the box. Whether you are picking up a guitar for the first time or looking to refine your skills, this pack gives you the perfect balance of quality, affordability, and ease of use to support you every step of the way.
Equipped with three single-coil pickups (the parts that capture the guitar's sound) and a 5-way switch, this guitar offers the timeless tonal qualities heard on countless classic records. It lets you dial in your ideal sound with absolute ease, whether you are playing rock, blues, or funk. You can push your sound further using the built-in tremolo bridge to add subtle, expressive vibrato flair to your playing.
The ASP features a contoured solid Poplar body with a sleek finish, designed to rest naturally against you for effortless playing comfort. The one-piece maple neck boasts a comfortable C-shape profile, while the eco-rosewood fretboard offers a smooth action that makes learning chords and soloing easy. It is the perfect foundational tool to take you from your very first notes to your first full song.
This package is recommended for beginners aged 10+ and over 150cm tall. If you need something to suit a smaller player, consider our 3/4 Electric Guitar packages.
These recommendations are guidelines designed to ensure a comfortable fit, rather than strict rules. Because physical build and ability vary, a younger player with a longer reach or advanced technique may easily handle an instrument outside their recommended age bracket.
We are proud to offer an exclusive series of online lessons created specifically for beginning guitar students. Developed entirely by our team, this program is designed to give you the best possible start to your playing career. We focus on the essential foundational skills that are rarely explained to new players. You will learn the vital basics, including how to properly hold the instrument, how to use a plectrum, and how to master a few simple exercises to get your fingers moving right away.
