Based on the original 1970s Music Man designs, the 2018 Cutlass RS has been re-engineered to deliver unparalleled playability and performance featuring a brand new premium roasted figured maple neck with ebony, rosewood or maple fingerboard. The Cutlass delivers classic rich tones thanks to its lightweight alder body, vintage spec electronics, and super smooth modern tremolo system.
