The story of Music Man begins at the dawn of the '70s, when Leo Fender leaves the company he sold 5 years earlier and begins to ponder the creation of his new house named Music Man. An indefatigable worker, Leo embarks on his new adventure and in 1972 creates his first instrument, a bass of course. This marks the birth of Music Man basses. Following this, amplifiers, electric guitars, and more were created. Armed with the Fender experience, Leo goes all out and develops brilliant instruments, including the active Music Man Sting Ray basses, which quickly become absolute references in the music world.
The Music Man Luke III HH Cherry Burst Quilt is a wonderful embodiment of luthier excellence. This guitar is inspired by the classic designs of Music Man Luke III, but with enhancements that propel it into a class of its own.
The first thing that strikes is the pure beauty of this guitar, with a solid Okoume body hosting a quilted maple top, all wrapped in a Cherry Burst finish that evokes soft and inviting flames. This finish highlights the rich and deep texture of the wood, adding a visual dimension that perfectly complements the vibrant and dynamic sound of the instrument. On our model, the wood grains are absolutely sumptuous.
The roasted maple neck, featuring a rosewood fingerboard, offers exceptional playability. With a 12" radius, a 25.5" scale length, and 22 wide and low frets, the neck is designed to allow maximum expressivity with minimal effort. The hardware components are not left behind with Schaller self-locking tuners and a vintage floating tremolo ensuring impeccable tuning stability even in the most demanding playing conditions. The Music Man Luke III HH Cherry Burst Quilt is more than a guitar; it's a testament to Music Man's commitment to quality and innovation, and a worthy continuation of Steve Lukather's legacy.
The Music Man Luke III HH Cherry Burst Quilt, equipped with Music Man Custom Wound Humbucking Ceramic (bridge) and Alnico (neck) pickups, offers a robust and varied sound palette.

Conversely, the Alnico pickup at the neck provides a warmer and softer tone, perfect for jazzy or bluesy sounds.
