Ernie Ball Music Man Kaizen 6 - Black Limba

The Ernie Ball Music Man Kaizen 6 - Black Limba: A Rare Fusion of Innovation and Exotic Tonewoods

***PRE-ORDER SCHEDULED TO SHIP June 2025 SUBJECT TO MANUFACTURER AVAILABILITY.***

Exclusive Black Limba body with stunning roasted maple neck

Limited to just 50 instruments worldwide, the Ernie Ball Music Man Kaizen 6 in Black Limba is a rare expression of cutting-edge design and exotic materials. The Black Limba body offers a visually arresting grain pattern that’s both organic and refined, providing a natural tonal richness that pairs beautifully with the forward-thinking Kaizen platform. Developed in collaboration with Tosin Abasi, this limited edition is as sonically sophisticated as it is visually bold.

Multiscale design for ergonomic precision

With a sculpted, offset body and multiscale fretboard, the Kaizen 6 was engineered for maximum playability and comfort. The roasted figured maple neck and ebony fingerboard offer fast response and stability, while the conical neck carve evolves from a comfortable “C” shape at the nut to a flatter feel near the body, adapting to the natural shape of your hand as you move up the neck.

Proprietary Music Man pickups and modern electronics

Outfitted with Music Man’s custom humbuckers, the Kaizen 6 delivers an expansive tonal range—from tight, aggressive rhythms to fluid, high-definition lead work. A streamlined 5-way switch and master volume/tone controls offer intuitive access to a variety of expressive voices, ideal for players who demand modern versatility without distraction.

Elevated aesthetic with sleek no-pickguard look

This limited model is strikingly clean, omitting the pickguard in favor of a seamless top that showcases the Black Limba’s natural figure. Finished with black hardware and a stealthy vibe, the Kaizen 6 retains its progressive design identity while elevating it with boutique visual character. It’s a guitar that feels both futuristic and grounded in craftsmanship.

Collector-grade rarity with touring-ready specs

Only 50 units of this configuration exist, making it a collector’s piece from the moment of release. Yet its dual-action truss rod, custom Music Man tremolo, and premium hardware ensure it’s ready for real-world performance.
