USED Ernie Ball Music Man 2016 James Valentine w/OHSC - CONSIGNMENT
Solid Body Electric Guitar with Ash Body, figured maple neck, specially designed single coil and humbucking pickups, active push push boost, Trans Buttermilk Finish.
Made in Sunny Southern California, the Valentine is a beast of a versatile electric guitar and looks fantastic!
James Valentine is the lead guitarist from the band Maroon 5, and, in that situation, he needs to be able to cover a lot of musical ground. The Valentine covers that ground and more!
The Ash solidbody provides plenty of Attack along with bottom end warmth, and paired with the roasted maple neck it adds a little more attack and spank to your sound.
The roasted process of the figured maple neck makes it more stable in changing climate situations.
Schaller M6 locking tuners, Music Man hard tail bridge with vintage bent steel saddles and 5 bolt sculpted neck joint.
James collaborated with the folks at Music Man to design a vintage sounding single coil bridge pickup - housed in a full humbucker size cover, along with a humbucker in the neck that can get you from jazz to hard rock.
"The power of the Music Man Valentine solidbody electric guitar is much more than meets the eye. Giving one of the pots a push engages an active boost, which is great when you need to get above a band for a solo, or when you need a little extra grit and sustain from your dirty tone. Pushing the other pot splits the neck humbucker, making the Valentine sound very similar to a classic guitar with two single-coils. And the body's revolutionary wedge shape causes the instrument to be very comfortable while helping to reduce weight."
This Consignment guitar is in excellent, near mint, condition and comes with the OHSC, paperwork, pickup/electronics guide sheet and Ernie Ball Strap Locks.
Finished in a wonderful trans buttermilk finish, displaying the wonderful grain of the ash body.
There is ever so slight small wear mark on the edge of the headstock... ever so slight waffer thin.
This guitar is a joy to play. The body is super comfortable and it sounds great.
Everyday is Valentines Day when you own this guitar!!
