Developed in collaboration with Animals as Leaders founder Tosin Abasi, the Sterling by Music Man 7-string Kaizen brings the innovative design of the original Ernie Ball Music Man model to a fixed standard scale. Its lightweight, contoured body and roasted maple neck provide ergonomic comfort and smooth playability across all 24 frets. Outfitted with Steinberger Gearless Tuners, a floating tremolo, and uncovered ceramic humbuckers, it’s ultra-modern in both sound and style—complete with a color-matched headstock and two bold matte finishes.
Lightweight Custom Design
A cutting-edge design shaped by Tosin Abasi’s style, the Kaizen channels his vision into a standard scale for a more traditional playing experience. The angular, ergonomic body makes a bold statement, while the roasted maple neck and 24-fret access create a smooth playground for technical exploration.
Dynamic Pickup System
Featuring two uncovered ceramic humbuckers for a raw, powerful tone, the Kaizen produces focused sounds with an aggressive midrange bite. It cuts through dense mixes effortlessly, ensuring your riffs and solos stand out with clarity and impact.
Seamless Performance Control
Steinberger’s Gearless Tuners combine a lightweight, low-profile design with smooth rotation and straight string pull to reduce friction and improve tuning precision. Paired with the floating tremolo, the Kaizen enables effortless dive bombs and pitch manipulation without sacrificing stability.
