This is a Sterling by Music Man Jason Richardson Cutlass (JR) in Purple Burst — a seriously high-performance guitar that punches way above its price point.
Designed with modern metal and technical playing in mind, the JR pairs a fast roasted maple neck with dual humbuckers and a sleek, ergonomic Cutlass body. This example is in great overall condition and has had a custom wiring mod carried out: the middle position of the 3-way switch now functions as a kill-switch, opening up some very cool stutter and rhythmic effects.
It’s been fully set up in-shop and plays exactly as you’d want — slick, stable, and ready to go. Aside from a very small lacquer crack on the body just below the fretboard, it’s close to like new.
A proper modern machine — not just a pointy guitar, but a genuinely versatile and inspiring player.
