Overview

A reimagined iconic guitar with modern refinements.

The Godin LERXST Limelight LTD electric guitar with Vega tremolo is a reimagined version of Alex Lifeson's legendary Hentor Sportscaster guitar from the 1980s. Developed in partnership between Lifeson and Godin Guitars, it captures the essence of the original in a thoroughly modern form. This electric guitar features custom Lerxst Limelight humbucker and single coil pickups, delivering a versatile range of tones for creative playing. Its slim, contoured swamp ash body provides comfort along with resonant acoustic properties. The ebony fingerboard and medium stainless steel frets facilitate smooth, precise fingering. The Vega tremolo bridge enables expressive, vibrating effects for your solos and riffs. Take your playing to bold new dimensions with the reimagined Godin LERXST Limelight LTD.

Custom Pickups for Versatile Tone

The Lerxst Limelight LTD is equipped with custom designed pickups for a versatile tonal palette. The bridge humbucker produces thick, saturated lead tones. The neck and middle single coils have an open, airy voice perfect for chords and clean passages. Blend the pickups together to create an array of unique sounds. Sculpt your tone further with individual volume and tone controls. Whether you want warm, singing leads or crisp rhythms, this guitar delivers the sonic range to suit your creative needs.

Slim Body With Swamp Ash for Comfort and Resonance

The contoured, lightweight body is made of swamp ash, prized for its balanced resonance. Its slimmer profile improves playing comfort, allowing you to perform for hours without fatigue. The wood's natural acoustic properties let notes ring out with full-bodied character. Feel the vibration through the sleek maple neck, reinforced for rock-solid stability. The slim profile neck and smooth ebony fingerboard facilitate fast, intricate playing across the 22 medium stainless steel frets. The sculpted cutaway provides easy access to the higher registers.

Vega Tremolo Bridge for Expressive Effects

The Vega tremolo bridge expands your creative options. Use the tremolo arm to infuse your playing with expressive vibratos, warbling effects and dive bombs. The bridge is designed for tuning stability, even with heavy use of the whammy bar. Whether you want gentle shimmers or extreme pitch sweeps, the Vega tremolo allows you to put your personal stamp on solos and riffs. It can also be locked for maximum tuning security if desired.

Modern Improvements on an Iconic Design

While paying homage to the original Hentor Sportscaster, the Lerxst Limelight LTD incorporates modern improvements for today's players. The previous quirks have been ironed out through Godin's expert craftsmanship and choice of stable, reliable hardware. This collaborative effort between Lifeson and Godin Guitars has resulted in a thoroughly contemporary instrument, ready to empower your performances and recordings with exceptional playability and inspiring sonic potential.
