Simple, effective electronics
At a glance, the Desert Eagle’s controls appear simple. But there’s more going on under the hood than you’d expect. This guitar is outfitted with a Seymour Duncan Distortion humbucker in the bridge and an ESP SS-120 single-coil in the neck. The only control is a push-pull volume pot. With the knob in the down position, you’re playing through the Distortion humbucker. Pull up the knob, and you’re playing through the SS-120 single-coil pickup.
Enjoy effortless playability
Your new George Lynch Desert Eagle centers around an alder body for a resonant sound and lightweight feel. From there, the bolt-on maple neck and U-shaped profile deliver extremely fluid playability. The neck is topped with a premium ebony fingerboard that feels great under your fingers. Lynch specified extra-jumbo stainless steel frets for this model, too. Stainless steel frets last much longer than their nickel counterparts and require fewer trips to the shop for leveling and crowning.
Primed for wild whammy tricks
LTD designed the George Lynch Desert Eagle to appropriately equip every hard-rocking player on the planet. The guitar is equipped with a Floyd Rose 1000SE tremolo bridge and tailpiece, which unlock plenty of interesting playing options. Feel free to dive-bomb, kamikaze, and squeal away to your heart’s content. Plus, the double-locking design ensures you stay in tune, no matter how badly you abuse the trem. With the George Lynch Desert Eagle’s Floyd Rose, you can test the boundaries of wicked guitar-based expression.
