![]() Music Man doesn’t recommend altering it from the stock setting, nor was it necessary, as the Silent Circuit nukes noise very effectively. One internal trim pot adjusts the boost gain, and another adjusts the Silent Circuit gain for maximum effectiveness. There’s very little free wiring inside the control cavity, since most of the components are arranged on a PCB. The guitar also offers high output Sterling by Music Man designed humbuckers, a 12dB push-push volume. The direct-mounted Music Man humbuckers feed a master-volume control with a push-push 20dB volume boost, a master tone with push-push coil split, and a three-way toggle switch. Engineered specifically to meet the demands of Jason Richardson’s technique, the 7-string Richardson7 features a custom contoured lower horn for fret access, roasted maple neck with rosewood fretboard, and highly figured Poplar Burl top. The moisture-free woods and solid hardware give the Cutlass a lively and sustaining acoustic tone, and when amped up it delivered impressive sounds, whether played relatively clean through a Fender Deluxe Reverb or with heavy overdrive via a Mesa/Boogie Rectifier Badlander head through its onboard speaker IRs and a Celestion-loaded cabinet, as well as with a selection of overdrive pedals. Our review Cutlass played beautifully, and its factory setup provided low action and tuneful intonation in all positions. The neckplate is laser etched with a custom Jason Richardson signature logo to signify its artist series destination. Kudos to the locking Schaller tuners, straight string pull, and slippery Melamine nut, all of which contribute to the stability of the system. ![]()
