Sterling Mariposa in Imperial White mariposa-iwh-r2 Electric Guitar

MARIPOSA

Designed in collaboration with Omar Rodríguez-López, the Mariposa is a true stunner. The guitar’s unique body shape is eye-catching, but there is more than meets the eye with the Mariposa. Featuring a roasted neck, locking tuners, three-way switching, and two humbucking pickups controlled by separate volume knobs, this guitar has endless tonal options. Available in Dorado Green and Imperial White.

OFFSET DESIGN

The Mariposa’s eye-catching offset body was designed in collaboration with Mars Volta and At the Drive-In composer & guitarist Omar Rodríguez-López.

ROASTED MAPLE NECK

The Mariposa features a roasted maple neck and locking tuners for maximum playability and tuning stability.  

CUSTOM ARTIST PICKUPS

Just like Omar’s playing, the Mariposa’s custom dual humbucking pickups are dynamic. The guitar comes with two volume pots, one for controlling each pickup.
