Sterling Sabre, Deep Blue Burst

Full Description

Powerful Fishman tone

The Sterling Sabre is built to deliver uncompromising tone, thanks to its dual Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker pickups. These hum-free pickups combine advanced technology with exceptional clarity, giving you the ability to cut through any mix with precision and power. The HH configuration allows you to explore a range of tones, from high-gain riffs to warm, clean chords. With the push-pull voicings and a 3-way selector switch, you can instantly change between aggressive, modern sounds and more traditional, vintage-inspired tones, making this guitar a versatile choice for any genre or playing style.

Premium neck design

A roasted maple neck gives the Sabre exceptional stability and a smooth playing feel. The modern C-shaped profile is designed for comfort and speed, allowing for effortless movement across the fretboard. Stainless steel frets not only provide a silky surface for fast playing but also ensure long-lasting durability, resisting wear even after years of intense use. This combination of roasted maple and stainless steel frets results in a neck that feels sleek and responsive, making technical runs and bends easier while maintaining excellent intonation and tuning stability.

Modern playability

The Sabre has been designed with modern players in mind, offering a balanced 25.5-inch scale length and a 12-inch neck radius for a comfortable yet versatile feel. Medium-high frets allow for easy string bending and articulate note clarity, while the ergonomic body shape provides a natural playing position. The modern tremolo bridge adds expressive capabilities, allowing you to perform dive-bombs and subtle vibrato effects without losing tuning accuracy. Every element of this guitar’s construction has been engineered to enhance playability and performance.

Reliable hardware

Equipped with high-quality locking tuners, the Sabre ensures rock-solid tuning stability and quick string changes. These tuners, combined with the five-bolt neck attachment and dual-action truss rod, create a robust platform that can withstand the demands of regular gigging and studio use. The nyatoh body provides a warm, resonant tone, while the flame maple top adds both visual and tonal brilliance. With a striking Deep Blue Burst finish, the Sabre is as eye-catching as it is reliable, making it a guitar that stands out on stage and delivers performance you can count on.
