Black Limba
Each Kaizen limited edition guitar features a black limba body with a satin urethane finish, showcasing bold black streaks and natural imperfections, uniquely making each guitar a one-of-a-kind. A roasted figured maple neck, complemented by a smoky ebony fingerboard and an oil and wax finish, completes its elegant yet understated appearance.
24.75” to 25.5” (E to E, 24.75" to 25.65" E to B on 7 string) multi-scale design provides affirmative string tension for thick and chunky rhythms on the bass strings, with a traditional feel on the treble strings for smooth bends and solos.
Contemporary low profile and accurate, lightweight tuning machines feature smooth rotation and allow for a straight string pull.
Man designed custom HT (Heat Treated) humbucker in the bridge position features powerful lows with remarkable definition resulting in one of the hottest pickups on the market. A slanted mini-humbucker in the neck position has been specifically designed to compliment the Kaizen bridge humbucker, offering an array of dynamic tones with outstanding sonic clarity. Overall the Kaizen pickups give ultra-high-output, powerful low-end response while retaining a distinctively clean, clear tone and definition at lower volume levels.
Super smooth modern Music Man tremolo with spring dampeners to alleviate unwanted overtones and ringing.
