The Kaizen Firemist Purple Satin from Sterling by Music Man is a modern electric guitar inspired by Tosin Abasi. It retains the unique aesthetic of the original model, with a streamlined body and ergonomic contours.

The nyatoh used for the body provides balanced resonance and controlled weight. The screwed neck in roasted maple ensures lasting stability, even under intense stress. The 24-fret rosewood fingerboard lets you explore the entire range with ease.

The ceramic pickups deliver a powerful sound, rich in mid-range and clarity. They provide an immediate response for both hard-hitting riffs and technical passages. The 3-position selector allows you to switch quickly from one sound character to another. Volume and tone controls provide easy access to the essentials. The modern Sterling vibrato provides expressive effects with good tuning.

Gearless Steinberger action improves precision and reduces friction. The black hardware underlines the guitar's sober, contemporary design. The Firemist Purple satin finish gives it a punchy look on stage.
