From his days with the Brecker Brothers and Miles Davis to
his string of successful solo albums and tours, Mike Stern's
credentials are indisputable. Throughout his career as one
of the reigning kings of modern jazz guitar, Mike has relied
on single-cutaway guitars. His devotion to that instrument is
re
fl
ected in the Mike Stern signature model, the PAC1511MS.

Alnico V Pickups
Alnico V magnets are used for both
single coil and humbucker to deliver
a clear strumming tone with good
projection plus a tight sound that
doesn’t get buried in the ensemble.
Coil Tap Function
A c o i l t a p f u n c t i o n o n t h e r e a r
humbucker delivers a wide range of
tonal possibilities, from hard distortion
to an edgy single coil tone. A switch in
the tone knob allows quick switching
between humbucker and single coil
tone. Setting the pickup selector to
the 4th position automatically selects
the coil tap function that delivers a
clear halftone from the pair of singles.
Ring Mount Rear Pickup
Like the top-end PACIFICA models, the
rear pickup is mounted directly to the
body. This con
fi
guration captures body
resonance, delivering greater dynamic
tone rather than pickguard mounting.
Block Saddle Vintage Type
Tremolo
The block saddle type vintage tremolo
offers excellent operation. The heavy
block type saddle delivers rich sustain
and deep tone.
