Sneak Peak. Introducing the new Music Man Valentine. James Valentine Signature Model

[QuietSpike]

Man, that is an elegant looking machine!

Love it.

 

[Flash Gordon]

OoOoOoOoOohhhHHH!!!!

 

[Stratty316]

Hot damn! I want one! I do wish previous models would be more widely available before new ones come out, though lol! I still can't get ahold of a St. Vincent! Seriously have a *possibly* sexual crush on EBMM guitars.

St Vincent guitar has been officially announced but not yet released. I would not expect to see one in the wild until after NAMM.

So I'm not hijacking too much... The Valentine guitar looks amazing BP!

 

[DrKev]

Wow! Did not see THAT coming! Looks fantastic!

 

[Raoul77]

Like the shape. Colors not so much, with the possible exception of the natural finish. A tobacco sunburst would really fit this axe I think. Maybe a semi-hollow vesion down the line. Really dig the 'simplicity'.

 

[fbecir]

24"3/4 or 25"5 scale length ?
James plays with Fender (Tele) and Gibson guitars so which scale length did he choose ?

 

[Monster212]

wow that is one fine looking guitar... once again EBMM and SBMM have raised the bar in the world of guitars.... Great Job...

 

[Big Poppa]

a familiar neck...

new silent circuit that will be coming on all the new stuff....absolutely groundbreaking

Dudley Gimpel designed and made by EBMM pickups the bridge pickup is very much a crazy morph of a p90 and a tele the neck is from the new Sting Ray guitar

Boost circuit.

Lightweight swamp ash hence the trans finishes


crazy hip secret with the body that you will see.....when you play it....

 

[agt]

Thanks, BP!

 

[peterd79]

Oh man... I can't wait to get my hands on one! This is going to be a very good 2016

I saw a mention of this the other day ... I'm very interested to find out the details. Anything you can share BP?

 

[threeminutesboy]

Wow that's some serious annoucement. Love Valentine's work. And this guitar is very close to the former axis sport in terms of wood.

Congrats and thanks for sharing this tremendous news. A signature guitar for Marron5's guitarist should bring a lot of kids on board.

I don't see any pics in the OP....removed??? Using IE.

 

[Tollywood]

Very classy looking guitar.

 

[Bryan]

In the first pic of him holding it, the natural/blonde kinda looked like a semi hollow body.

I dig it. Very much gives off the "meat and potatoes" vibe of a working man's guitar.

Can't wait for the demo videos to start surfacing.

 

[dwells]

really digging this guitar!!

 

[banjoplayer]

cool! sweet! I really appreciate that you are bringing out some "simple" guitars after some of the high end stuff with the crazy maple tops or things like the majesty. They are nice too, but I like it simple.
Very very cool, just like the Cutlass and the Sting Ray guitar are!

The body secret? Is it semi hollow just like a 335? w/out a f-hole?

Thanks for the sneak, BP!

Stop using IE!

I'm loving this new sig, the Cutlass & StingRay and really love the modded out Mick Mars Cutlass.
I believe the HH sig will rock as well.

Great work by Dudley, BP and the rest of the EBMM team.

I'm definetley coming back and when healthy enough, I got some Photoshopping to do.
