Sterling by Music Man wants you to know:

Designed in collaboration with Omar Rodríguez-López, the Mariposa is a true stunner. The guitar’s unique body shape is eye-catching, but there is more than meets the eye with the Mariposa. Featuring a roasted neck, locking tuners, 3-way switching, and two humbucking pickups controlled by separate volume knobs, this guitar has endless tonal options.

Features:

OFFSET SIGNATURE DESIGN

The Mariposa’s eye-catching offset body was designed in close collaboration with Omar Rodríguez-López, the genre-bending composer and guitarist of Mars Volta and At the Drive-In.

CUSTOM ARTIST PICKUPS

Just like Omar’s playing, the Mariposa’s custom dual humbucking pickups are dynamic. This guitar comes with two volume pots, one for controlling each pickup.

ROASTED MAPLE NECK

The Mariposa features a smooth roasted maple neck and locking tuners for maximum playability and tuning stability.
