Sterling Mariposa, Imperial White Overview

The Mariposa was designed in collaboration with Omar Rodriguez-Lopez of The Mars Volta, resulting in a bold, unique guitar with modern features. This model has an offset Nyatoh body, a roasted maple neck which is durable and less susceptible to temperature changes, and a smooth rosewood fretboard with 22 frets. It also has locking tuners and a vintage tremolo for reliable tuning stability.

For pickups, it has a pair of custom humbuckers that provide have a dynamic range and provide the classic warm humbucker tones, with a 3-way pickup switcher to easily switch between sounds, and each pickup has it’s own volume knob. The guitar is completed with a white pickguard, white pearloid block inlays and classic Imperial White finish with matching headstock.
