Music Man Cutlass MN Ivory White

Classically constructed electric guitar with high playing comfort

For the construction of the Music Man Cutlass, the guitar builders from San Luis Obispo in California rely on classical electric guitar ingredients. The strongly contoured body is made of alder, which in combination with the screwed maple neck promises a crisp basic sound with powerful bass and fast response. The pleasantly profiled neck, whose thin satin finish guarantees smooth handling, also ensures a high level of comfort when playing the guitar. Furthermore, thanks to the contoured neck base, the high positions of the maple fingerboard with 22 stainless steel frets are easily accessible.

Vintage sounds without sound loss

The electric tone conversion of the Music Man Cutlass MN Ivory White is performed by three Music Man Custom Wound single coil pickups, whose sound is based on the sought-after vintage sound of the 1960s. Accordingly, the pickups deliver a bell-like response and reproduce sound with harmonic transparency. Due to the combination with the active "Silent Circuit", no background noise occurs even with high gain settings. In addition, an active buffer amp is located in front of the output jack, which prevents sound loss when the volume potentiometer is turned back, thus ensuring absolutely even sound development.

Modern tremolo and locking tuner

The hardware features of the Music Man Cutlass electric guitar are also based on classical specifications, but offer contemporary functionality and handling. The Music Man Modern Tremolo, for example, sits on the body, which is supported on two pins and thus promises particularly smooth response for gently shimmering vibratos or hearty Whammy Bar inserts. The smooth cover over the strings made of bent sheet steel also provides a pleasant contact surface for the ball of the thumb. At the headstock, the strings first run over a compensated saddle, which significantly improves the intonation of gripped notes in the lower registers, before they are guided to the indestructible Schaller M6-IND locking mechanisms with absolutely straight tension. They promise a precise and stable tuning of the electric guitar even with frequent use of the vibrato and make string changes much easier.
