Product Description
Looking for legendary Music Man playability and tone at a more accessible price-point? That's exactly what the 'Sterling by Music Man' range is for! The Valentine Collection is known for effortlessly combining iconic "best of" guitar features into the perfect package, and this semi-hollow addition to the lineup is a real stunner!
This more accessible Sterling version of the Music Man Valentine stays true to the original specs that made it stand out — White Ash body, 12dB push/push boost (volume knob), Roasted Maple neck, and locking tuners — while elevating and innovating with the addition of a chambered body.
Key Features
- Chambered White Ash Body — Semi-hollow design gives the instrument more sonic depth and "airiness", yielding a gloriously resonant sound with huge sustain. White Ash is strong, durable and delivers a distinct upper mid-range with clear bass response and scooped lower mids.
- Roasted Maple Neck — "Roasting" process removes moisture from the wood, making the neck far less vulnerable to warping when exposed to varying climates and ensuring incredible tuning stability.
- 5-Bolt Neck Joint — Ensures optimal contact between the neck and body for incredible sustain and resonance. The heel is also contoured to provide generous access to the higher frets.
- 4 + 2 Headstock Design — A feature that Music Man guitars are renowned for! This practical design allows the strings to run straight over the nut (not at an angle), which greatly improves tuning stability.
- Locking Tuners — Ingenious locking mechanism makes restringing easier and means that less string winds are required around the tuning posts; resulting a better tuning stability.
