Luke 4 Maple Top Highlights

Lightweight Okoume body and maple top with polyester finish
Crafted with a roasted maple neck, rosewood fingerboard and 22 nickel frets
Equipped with an adjustable 12db boost and 5-way switch for more tonal diversity

INSPIRED BY OVER A DECADE OF ELECTRIC GUITAR STRING RESEARCH

Incorporating the principles and insights that contributed to the development of Cobalt and M-Steel Slinkys resulting in a new material-based innovation for pickups.

HT Humbucking Bridge Pickup

The HT bridge pickup outperforms regular spec pickups with ultra-high output, more dynamic range, and excellent touch sensitivity. The pickup garners a powerful low-end response while retaining a distinctively clean, clear tone and definition at lower volume levels.
HT Humbucking Neck Pickup

The custom-wound HT neck humbucker also features a large ceramic magnet and has been wound specifically to pair with the Luke 4’s bridge pickup.

Luke 4 Maple Top – Push Push Boost Circuit

Push Push Boost Circuit

A push-push volume knob activates the Luke 4 HT preamp boost and is factory set to 12db. Via a trim pot inside the control cavity, the preamp can be adjusted up to 20db if needed for heavy rhythm parts or high-octane soloing whenever the user chooses.

Luke 4 Maple Top – Designed to Perfection

Designed to Perfection

The Luke 4's double-cutaway design features a balanced, resonant Okoume body for extreme playing comfort. The premium roasted maple neck is beautifully figured and features a soft "V" profile that comfortably fits in the palm of your hand.
