Full Description
The Ernie Ball Music Man Cutlass HT SSS is a modern evolution of the classic S-style guitar, designed for players who crave vintage clarity with contemporary bite. Outfitted with Music Man’s proprietary Heat Treated (HT) single-coil pickups, this instrument delivers articulate highs, punchy mids, and focused low end with remarkable dynamic range—plus a discreet onboard gain boost for added drive when you need it.
The alder body is finished in high-gloss polyester and sculpted with deep contours for unmatched comfort and balance. A roasted figured maple neck adds both visual richness and tonal snap, with a roasted birdseye maple fingerboard. Stainless steel frets, a 10" radius, and Music Man’s signature gunstock oil/wax neck finish provide effortless playability for both lead and rhythm work.
A Music Man Modern tremolo with vintage bent steel saddles anchors the bridge for expressive bends and excellent tuning stability, while Schaller M6-IND locking tuners keep everything rock-solid. Under the hood, you’ll find professional-grade electronic shielding and an intuitive control layout that includes a push/push volume boost—perfect for stepping out in the mix.
Condition: This is a used 2023 Ernie Ball Music Man Cutlass HT SSS, built to deliver top-tier tone, modern comfort, and road-ready reliability. It ships with a premium hardshell case and includes our Pro-Tech Setup so it’s dialed in and stage-ready. Overall, these guitar has been kept in great condition with its previous owner. There's nothing to mention issue wise, you could just expect the normal light surface marks/scratches for being a used guitar.

- Neck adjustment for optimal relief
- Nut inspection and setup for tuning stability
- Bridge and intonation adjustments for pitch-perfect performance

I must say, I've had enough of mass sellers like SweetWater with their extra fees for everything that should be included as part of a guitar sale. Drop Dee Guitars exceeded my expectations by far with my order, ensuring that my instrument was a joy to play straight out of the box. I eagerly anticipate future business with this store. They are truly a shining star! Excellent communication throughout the pre-sale and after-sale as well. Thank you!
