Description
Designed in collaboration with the one and only Steve Lukather, the Luke is firmly established as a modern classic. The Sterling by Music Man Luke HSS stays true to the original recipe, retaining the instantly recognisable body shape and comfy V-shaped neck, but spices things up with a super‑versatile HSS pickup layout.
With a 5‑way selector, vintage-style tremolo and a seriously handy 12dB push‑push volume boost on tap, this guitar is built to cover a huge amount of sonic ground. And with a gorgeous Flamed Maple veneer top, it looks every bit as good as it sounds.Key Features
Roasted Maple neck: Lightweight, stable and resistant to warping. It’s got a beautifully smooth feel too, and boosts resonance for a lively playing experience.
HSS pickups: Equipped with a ceramic bridge humbucker and a pair of alnico single‑coils, the Luke HSS has serious range. Dial in glassy cleans, smooth, vocal lead tones or switch things up for tight, punchy high‑gain rhythms.
Push/push volume boost: Need to jump out for a solo? Just push the volume knob to engage the 12dB volume boost and cut straight through the mix — no pedal or amp tweak required.
Vintage tremolo: Dives, vibrato and cool pitch tricks are all on the menu thanks to this smooth, responsive trem.
Locking tuners: Improved tuning stability even after heavy tremolo use — plus lightning-fast restringing. What’s not to love?
