Music Man goes for the gold with Music Man Limited Edition guitars and basses in Radiance Red, with a gold silk-screened logo on a black headstock. A special neck plate will be stamped with "Limited Edition" and pickguards will stand out with a white pearloid finish.

Available for a limited time only, the options are featured on all Music Man Instruments except the Axis, Axis Super Sport, and SUB basses and guitars. The options come with an added retail charge of $125, a discounted price as these particular upgrades normally cost $250.

"The combination of great colors gives the instruments an exceptional look. We've got many avid Music Man collectors out there, and once again, we are here to give them what they want with limited edition items," said Sterling Ball, president of the company.

The company is now taking orders, and has received a tremendous response in the first week. "With all the extra options, the instruments have a very distinct look and appeal," said Ball.
