Prestigious Roots

Making its debut in 1978, the Music Man Sabre was originally a design that came from the minds of two guitar design legends - Leo Fender & George Fullerton - and was the second guitar made under the Music Man moniker. This version of the Sabre is by far the best incarnation so far, combining Music Man’s incredible craftsmanship with cutting-edge modern appointments. The result is a high-performance guitar that is effortlessly playable and sounds fantastic.

Finest Tonewoods

Laying the foundation for the Sabre’s incredible tone is its solid Okoume body and 1/2" thick book-matched Flame Maple top, which is adorned with natural binding and a subtle carve. The combination of these tonewoods creates a natural sound that is beautifully balanced, with tonnes of resonance and sustain. The mid-range warmth of the Okoume body is perfectly complemented by the clear trebles of the Flame Maple top.

Elegant Design

The Sabre’s slender body has been carefully contoured to provide the most comfortable playing experiencing, whilst retaining a classy and elegant style. Plus, whilst the Sabre feels robust and substantial, it isn’t back-breakingly heavy so you can use it for extended performances.

Versatile Pickups

Giving the Music Man Sabre its commanding voice is its pair of custom-wound MM humbuckers, which are directly mounted onto the body. Put simply, these pickups are warm, punchy and full with plenty of note definition. There’s a vast array of tones available here, allowing you to cover virtually any style you throw at it, from crushing metal riffs to crisp funk comping.

With the 5-way switch, you can quickly access a range of inspiring configurations, including series, parallel and coil-split tones.

Effortless Playing Experience

One of the most compelling aspects of the Sabre is its slick, effortless playability. This is catered for by the gorgeous figured Roasted Maple neck, which features a comfortable Slim C profile and is topped with 22 medium high-profile stainless steel frets. The Sabre’s neck finish is a blend of Gunstock oil and hand-rubbed special wax, providing a smooth, luxurious feel. If you’re a technique-oriented player or an aspiring virtuoso, you will love the way the Sabre plays.

Premium Hardware

The Sabre’s hardware is top-notch and gives it workhorse reliability that you’d expect from an instrument of this calibre. With the Modern Tremolo bridge, you can pull off wide, expressive bends and return back to spot-on pitch. Rock-solid tuning stability is covered by the precision-engineered Schaller M6-IND locking machine heads.

The Music Man Sabre is a testament to the company’s prowess as world-class guitar builders. Its looks will make you want to pick it up and its astounding playability & sound will keep you from putting it down. This is a professional-grade instrument that can meet the demands of the most discerning player. If you’re looking for a guitar that will have you playing, sounding and looking your best, the Music Man Sabre is hard to beat.
