One of the most compelling features of this guitar is its tonal complexities, made possible by the DiMarzio Sonic Ecstasy Pickups. They are intricately designed to immerse you and your audience in an extensive range of sounds. For a softer tone, use the piezo pickup positioned at the bridge. It offers a smooth, silky sound that is reminiscent of an acoustic guitar, perfect for strumming and delicate picking – every note will shine with clarity. A stark contrast to the piezo, the magnetic neck pickup gives a tone that has sharp bite and crunch. The combination allows you to experience a range of sublime sounds, from alluring rhythmical and harmonic definition to immense overdrive, from an angelic tone to one with growl and amazing sustain. The Music Man BFR Majesty gives your sound the potential to be wonderfully psychedelic; flittering between the pickups will ensure you get lost in the wondrous, immersive tone and undoubtedly capture your audience. This guitar also enables you to relish the in-between world of the two, in which acoustic and electronic are intertwined – giving you a sound like no other.
Give your sound an extra boost
If you want to amplify your music even more and give it that extra depth, the boost button allows you to do just that. Just with one simple click, you can increase the volume so that it is more rounded, more intense and more immersive. There’s no need to worry about constantly using your pedal board, you can shape your sound with minimal movement and minimal stress with just one button. It has been designed to provide the ultimate ease and comfort.
An exquisite ebony fretboard
Hammer-on, pull-off, and string bend without any impediment. The fretboard offers supreme playability, accommodating a vast range of playing styles and techniques. Crafted from ebony, it is smooth, fast, and flawless, so you can slide down the frets like a lightning bolt. Its sleek finish means there is absolutely no friction, and its slightly larger-than-average size grants you a wealth of space to play with. The ebony also provides a bright, sharp tone, which is needed for the clarity of notes, so you can be sure that you are playing with a sublime sound. Better still, the thin neck of the guitar means you can navigate your way around the fretboard freely.
As well as the practical benefits of having such a well-crafted ebony fretboard, it also looks beautiful. Running down the length of each side are white pearl inlays. They add small details to the fretboard which is enough to give it a touch of sophistication, but subtle enough to retain its gorgeous simplicity. The fretboard compliments the blue sparkle body of the guitar perfectly, and allows the enthralling finish to take centre stage, whilst providing you with the means to play impeccably.
Transcendent sound, transcendent finish
Visually, this guitar is striking. The first thing you notice is the beauty of the ocean-like gloss and the dazzling shine of the sparkle. With this guitar in front of you, you are sure to feel like a force of nature. But underneath the glossy finish, the woods offer an array of tonal qualities. The maple top offers a bright tone, articulation of the higher frequencies, and brilliant attack and sustain. Combined with the basswood of the body, which provides warmth and depth, the guitar has a clear balanced sound with a clarity that is needed for an electric instrument. The mahogany neck then brings a mellower tone with a smooth high range. Each wood is also incredibly durable and resilient, meaning this is a guitar that will stick with you. It won’t let you down.
