Artist AP1 Electric Guitar w/ Humbuckers & Accessories
This guitar pack contains all the essential accessories needed to get started, except for an amplifier. If you do not currently own an amplifier, consider one of our AP1 packages with an amplifier included.
This full-size electric guitar is built for versatility, excelling in a range of musical styles, especially rock, blues, and metal. Designed to be easy to play, the AP1 is the perfect choice for both beginners starting their musical journey and experienced players alike, offering a powerful, resonant sound that is loved by beginners and experienced players alike.
Powerful Sound
At the heart of the AP1 are two Artist HBP Humbucker pickups (the parts that capture the guitar's sound). These deliver a thick, punchy tone that handles heavy distortion and overdrive with ease. Combined with the lightweight Okumen wood body, which provides a warm and rich tone, you can get all the grit you want without unwanted noise.
Premium Build & Playability
The standout feature of the AP1 is its set-neck construction (where the neck is glued to the body rather than bolted on). This gives your notes superior sustain, meaning they ring out longer and sweeter. It features a smooth neck with a 2-way adjustable truss rod, a comfortable eco-rosewood fretboard, and a fixed bridge with high-quality tuning machines to keep your strings securely in tune. We've also included a stunning maple tiger stripe finish, so it looks just as good as it sounds.

Recommended Age & Height: 10+, 150cm+
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.
