Modern Playability, Classic Feel The Cutlass RS neck is crafted from roasted figured maple, offering enhanced stability, a smooth feel and a premium look. The 10 inch radius and 22 high-profile, medium-width stainless steel frets make bending effortless and intonation rock solid, while the hand-rubbed oil and wax finish lets your hand glide up and down the neck with zero stickiness. Versatile HSS Pickup Configuration A proprietary Music Man custom-wound ceramic humbucker in the bridge delivers tight lows, focused mids and plenty of bite for rock and heavier styles. This is perfectly balanced by two vintage-voiced single coils that provide shimmering cleans and articulate rhythm tones. Together, the HSS layout gives you a huge tonal palette that can handle almost any genre. Silent Circuit Single Coil Performance The custom single coils are paired with Music Man’s wide spectrum Silent Circuit, which dramatically reduces hum while preserving the true character of a traditional single coil. You get all the sparkle, snap and nuance you expect, without the noise that can plague high-gain or high-volume situations. Refined Tremolo and Rock-Solid Hardware The Music Man modern tremolo with vintage bent steel saddles offers smooth, precise pitch modulation and excellent return-to-pitch performance. Schaller M6-IND locking tuners keep tuning stable under heavy trem use, while the sculpted 5-bolt neck joint ensures comfortable access to the upper frets for solos and high-register chords.Key Features Roasted Figured Maple Neck with Stainless Steel Frets – The roasted figured maple neck is more stable and resistant to environmental changes, while the 22 stainless steel frets offer long-lasting durability and a slick, consistent feel for precise bending and vibrato. Custom HSS Pickup Set with Silent Circuit – A powerful ceramic humbucker and two custom-wound single coils give you everything from vintage sparkle to modern crunch, with the Silent Circuit keeping unwanted hum to a minimum without sacrificing authentic single coil tone.
