NGD: SBMM St. Vincent

[Fender_Champ]

I have been obsessed with the St. Vincent since it was released last year, so when I heard that there would be an SBMM version, I knew that I had to have one. Lo and behold, blizzards be damned, it arrived yesterday and I could not be happier. It is beautiful and exceeds all of my expectations. (build quality, tonal range, aesthetics) Big Poppa, St. Vincent, Brian and everyone at EBMM and SBMM should be very proud of what they have accomplished. The design is unique and fresh while still being timeless. Its classic lineage is felt as soon as you pick it up (Firebird, Explorer, Strat, Jazzmaster, vintage Japanese) - and the blue/chrome and body contours are '69 Corvette Stingray through and through.

Did I say that I love the neck?... I love the neck!

A huge thanks to @petedubaldo. He was a pleasure to do business with. This was my first MM guitar, but definitely not my last. You have raised the bar.

Thanks for reading.

Brian, you should be proud. The build quality is stellar.

And feels! It also shipped with the simple, modern trem arm rather than the vintage style one that was in the press photos.

Thanks so much! I really am proud of our entire new lineup.

That looks real nice - you made a good choice. Now to add a cutlass to the collection!

Congratulations, enjoy the brand-new instrument!!

I am wondering, could it be that the shape represents a lady's tuxedo or something similar? =)
