Guitars seldom arrive as "minty" as this one, it could almost pass off as a new guitar, and the same goes for its custom fitted hard case. As you can see it has all the case candy in place and is a remarkable guitar indeed. Leo really did up the game when MusicMan hit the market.
All the refinements on the original Start guitar go to make the Cutlass so comfortable and a perfect live performer with no noise thanks to the updated electronics.
The controls are simple, a standard 5 way switch with master volume and tone, with a smooth accurate tremolo.
Here are the words of wisdom from MusicMan -
Updated vintage spec electronics, a super smooth modern tremolo system, and lightweight alder body are welcome refinements to the Cutlass. An oversized 4 over 2 headstock with straight string pull provides superior tuning stability. Flawless craftsmanship throughout makes the Cutlass a perfect culmination of old-world aesthetics and styling with modern design and playability.
