This Guitar Center-exclusive model pairs a balanced poplar body with a fast roasted maple neck and a warm rosewood fingerboard adorned with white pearloid block inlays. Its vibrant Seafoam Green gloss finish adds a retro-inspired flair that looks right at home under stage lights. A powerful set of Modern Alnico HSS pickups delivers everything from sparkling cleans to high-output drive, while the push/push mid-boost control provides instant cut and presence when you need it. Rounded out with locking tuners, a smooth vintage-style tremolo and a stable five-bolt neck joint, the CT50 Plus offers a feature set typically found on far pricier guitars—making it a formidable all-in-one workhorse for the modern musician.

Timeless Poplar Body and Exclusive Seafoam Green Finish

The Cutlass CT50 Plus begins with a poplar body, chosen for its balanced tonal character, comfortable weight and reliability under stage and studio conditions. Poplar’s even lows, articulate mids and clear top end create a neutral, adaptable platform for the guitar’s upgraded Modern HSS electronics. The classic double-cutaway shape offers familiar ergonomics and easy access to all 22 frets, while the exclusive Seafoam Green finish brings vibrant vintage appeal with contemporary polish. Resonant, lightweight and visually striking, the CT50 Plus blends modern performance with timeless style.

Roasted Maple Neck for Enhanced Stability and Sustain

A roasted maple neck gives the Cutlass CT50 Plus exceptional structural stability and enhanced tonal response, offering increased sustain, improved resonance and long-term reliability in any environment. The roasting process removes excess moisture from the wood, resulting in a neck that’s more resistant to temperature and humidity changes while also delivering a warm, harmonically rich foundation. Paired with a smooth rosewood fingerboard, the CT50 Plus provides a balanced, articulate feel that supports both rhythmic precision and expressive lead work. White pearloid block inlays add a touch of upscale flair, while the 12" radius and 25.5" scale length combine for a modern playing surface suited to wide bends, fast runs and accurate fretting. With a dual-action truss rod and a secure five-bolt neck attachment, the CT50 Plus is built for dependable performance night after night.

Modern Alnico HSS Pickups With Push/Push Mid Boost

The Cutlass CT50 Plus features a new Modern HSS pickup set engineered for clarity, punch and dynamic range. The Alnico single-coils deliver shimmering highs and articulate mids, perfect for clean funk, pop, indie and classic rock tones. The bridge humbucker adds fullness and authority for heavier rhythms and soaring leads. A five-way pickup selector allows seamless transitions between glassy single-coil tones, blended textures and humbucker power. The integrated push/push mid-boost control lets you add instant growl, presence and cut—perfect for stepping forward in the mix or thickening lead tones without changing your amp settings.

Locking Tuners and Vintage Tremolo for Reliable, Expressive Performance

The CT50 Plus comes equipped with locking tuners for quick string changes, rock-solid tuning stability and consistent performance during bends, vibrato use and tremolo work. The vintage-style tremolo bridge offers smooth, expressive pitch modulation while maintaining balance and tuning integrity. Combined with the precision nut, dual-action truss rod and sturdy five-bolt neck joint, these hardware upgrades ensure the guitar performs reliably in live settings and stands up to demanding playing styles.

A Modern, Feature-Rich Take on a Classic Platform

Packed with thoughtful upgrades, enhanced electronics and stage-ready hardware, the Sterling by Music Man Cutlass CT50 Plus electric guitar offers a premium playing experience at an exceptional value. Its roasted maple neck, versatile Modern HSS pickup set and mid-boost control provide players with a broad tonal palette, while its exclusive Seafoam Green finish delivers standout visual appeal. Whether you're crafting detailed arrangements in the studio or hitting the stage nightly, the CT50 Plus is a refined, modern workhorse built to keep up with every performance.
