    Fun fact: the MM Cutlass was designed in the 1970s when Leo Fender was at MM, so it's not a Strat knockoff, it is more like Leo's iteration on the Strat. Careful observers will note that the top of the pick guard matches the curve of the top of the pick guard on the Telecaster, another Leo detail.

    Sterling Cutlass HSS. I've had it for like 2 years it's my very favorite guitar to play another Cutlass isn't it's nice to see Music Man. I needed something more affordable for me. I don't regret buying a guitar at all I absolutely love it I've been at Music Man guitar lover many years. Used to be on Anderson's years ago? I think you're an amazing guitar player how is that

    So happy to see this. I have an HSS sterling cutlass that I tricked out that has become my favorite guitar. It's so comfortable to play and with the right pickups sounds great. It might convince me to pony up for the MM one if they can put the Triptychs in it.

    • @PureJadeKid
      @PureJadeKid Рік тому

      The Sterling Cutlass is like a $900 guitar for only $550 (mine was used for like $400 or so) - locking tuners, snap in/snap out tremolo bar, baked maple neck, etc. I love my SSS Sterling Cutlass. I would love to try the Triptychs too!

  • @andrewbecker3700
    @andrewbecker3700 Рік тому

    Love my Cutlass. It's a Sterling with HSS pickups. I've upgraded all the electronics and added coilsplitting for the humbucker. With the treble bleed curcuit it's just soo versatile. I tend to grab it first for almost everything. The new Sterling Cutlass CT50 plus has got my interest also. Thinking of dropping a David Gilmour active pickup set in an SSS version if they come out with some better colors soon.

    Ernie ball is awesome, I honestly like the iconic metal brands or rather the guys who support them. It’s just like that’s the one! This player plays it I need to have one! I like them, but I got a sterling, and it eats all my other guitars. It’s just crazy, that neck has been so comfy, the other guitar that has to my like is an old prs but it was a sig model and forget the name. Wish they still made those… But the guitar I have from sterling is miles better more from a comfortable and sounding playing sounding guitar, these guys have it in check.

    So Very Cool Rabea, Thankyou. Stunning Guitar and Playing. Awesome. I have an entry level Sterling by Music Man SUB Silo3 Black with white pick-ups.

One day I will find out. Cheers

  • @InspiretoVictory
    @InspiretoVictory Рік тому +2

    Does it feel weird playing an S style guitar without a trem? Your sig single coils sound great, btw. Really well balanced and musical. But then again, it's Bare Knuckle. They are just the best. And seeing you play Ernie Ball guitars has really peaked my interest into their lineup. They make some incredible stuff.
    Also, I have a blacked out pair of Silos waiting to go into a baritone I'm putting together. Warmoth wenge neck with ebony fretboard and a Warmoth mahogany body that I'm waiting on to get here from being painted in a nitro Lake Placid blue.
    Congrats on your success. You've earned it!

    • @lockedowng
      @lockedowng Рік тому +1

      It has a pop in trem arm. While the EBMM bridge can be floating, its usually down only. I have broken a string on my HSS Cutlass and it hasn't gone out because the bridge rests on the body by design. With the locking tuners, you can bring the down like a floyd so the strings hang off the body. Somehow, it stays in tune.
