Does it require the use of a battery or is it entirely optional like the original silent circuit.
So - as a new owner of a delightful Cutlass, in an effort to understand, I must ask, is there a downside to the buffered output?
Personally - I use a wireless guitar system (Shure GLX-D) which runs thru 5 true-bypass pedals into the front of the amp. I use good quality patch cable (Evidence Monorail) and good quality cable to the front of the amp and thru the loop.
I would be curious as well, I dont play out or in a band but since my new Cutlass will be here Friday want to know what to expect.
Just to clear things up regarding the Cutlass electronics.....
The new silent circuit utilizes our patented design which maintains traditional passive wiring between the custom wound Music Man pickups and the instrument's volume and tone controls. The added benefits of the new design provide superior noise canceling and equips the pickup to perform at its utmost potential.
Music Man's proprietary unity gain buffer, which is implemented after the controls, transparently drives the instrument's signal at a low impedance. This ensures any use of poor quality cables, effects, or other accessories in the signal chain do not negatively effect the pickup's tone.
As a result, the Cutlass delivers the clearest possible signal to any rig.

Will the guitar output sound with a dead battery?
