Open Box Sterling by Music Man Luke LK100 Electric Guitar - Level 1 Bodhi Blue

A sought-after session player needs a guitar that can handle any gig—and for Grammy-winning guitarist Steve Lukather, that instrument is the Luke. As the lead guitarist of Toto and one of the most prolific session players of all time, Lukather conceived of the Luke LK100 as the ultimate workhorse—balancing expressiveness, playability and tonal flexibility at the highest level. Now, the Sterling by Music Man Luke brings that pedigree into an accessible, player-focused format, delivering pro-grade performance at a budget-friendly price. Its lightweight nyatoh body yields resonant, responsive tone, while the V-contoured roasted maple neck and rosewood fingerboard ensure a smooth, fast feel. Under the hood, dual ceramic humbuckers provide the clarity, punch and dynamic range modern players need, and a push/push active boost offers instant access to an extra 12dB of gain. A vintage-style tremolo and locking tuners round out the package, making the Luke LK100 electric guitar an all-in-one powerhouse ready to accompany you from stage to studio and beyond.

Nyatoh Body for Warmth, Resonance and Dynamic Response

The Luke LK100 features a resonant nyatoh body, chosen for its balanced midrange, articulate lows and responsive high end. Nyatoh’s tonal character complements the ceramic humbuckers, giving notes both warmth and definition. The contoured body enhances comfort during long sessions, while the lightweight design allows effortless movement whether seated or standing. Finished with a high-quality gloss, the top subtly highlights the wood’s natural character. Together, these elements provide a musical foundation that responds naturally to pick attack and playing dynamics, making it equally effective for rhythmic comping, melodic solos or expressive lead work.

Roasted Maple Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard for Speed and Precision

The Luke’s classic V-shaped roasted maple neck offers remarkable stability, smooth playability and natural resonance. Its ergonomic contour facilitates fast, fluid fretting, while the rosewood fingerboard adds immediate attack, subtle warmth and precise note definition. White dot markers provide clear visual reference without interrupting the clean aesthetic, and the five-bolt neck joint ensures maximum sustain and rigidity. Designed for technical players and expressive performers alike, this neck/fingerboard combination promotes low fatigue, consistent playability and effortless access across all 22 frets.

Ceramic Humbuckers and Active Boost for Tonal Versatility

The Luke LK100 is equipped with a pair of ceramic humbuckers that deliver clear, punchy tones with impressive dynamic range. The bridge pickup provides tight, articulate crunch for leads and rhythm, while the neck pickup produces warm, singing tones suitable for solos or clean passages. A push/push 12dB active boost allows on-the-fly gain enhancement, giving players immediate access to extra punch or sustain when needed. Combined with the five-way balanced pickup selector, this system offers expansive tonal options, making the Luke capable of everything from subtle jazz textures to high-gain rock and fusion-style shred.

Vintage Tremolo and Locking Hardware for Reliability and Expressive Control

The Luke’s vintage-style tremolo provides expressive pitch modulation while maintaining dependable tuning stability, even under aggressive use. Locking tuners ensure smooth, precise adjustments, while the dual-action truss rod allows for quick and reliable neck setup. The intuitive control layout—single tone knob, volume control with push/push boost and five-way pickup selector—keeps players focused on performance. Every hardware choice is designed to support technical playing, extended gigs and studio work, offering a combination of performance reliability and comfort for demanding playing styles.
