From Ernie Ball / Music Man Guitars

The Ernie Ball Music Man Sabre HT guitar blends the classic Sabre design with advanced features. It includes custom Music Man HT pickup technology, developed from extensive guitar string research, delivering dynamic responsiveness. The HT bridge pickup features heat-treated pole pieces and a large ceramic magnet for high-output, enhanced high-frequency harmonics, and touch sensitivity. The ceramic-based neck humbucker is designed to complement the bridge pickup’s characteristics. Additional features include a push-push adjustable 20dB boost and transparent buffered output for consistent tonality across all volume levels. The Sabre HT boasts a contoured Okoume body, thick flame maple top and is available with roasted figured maple neck options, along with 22 stainless steel frets for exceptional durability and playability. In addition, the electronics package includes a push-push adjustable 20dB boost function and a transparent buffered output for complete tonal consistency wherever your volume control is set. In other respects, the Sabre HT shares many of the original Sabre guitar specifications but also features a contoured Okoume body with a thick book-matched plain or roasted maple top(depending on body color), plain and roasted maple neck options, and 22 stainless steel frets.
