As part of the Grammy-winning band Maroon 5, James Valentine's funk-infused licks have served up constant earworms for millions of listeners, not to mention contributed to the trademark sound of one of today's hottest pop-rock acts. Ernie Ball Music Man tapped into James' mystique to create the Valentine Electric Guitar, combining vintage aesthetics and modern enhancements to form an instrument all its own. Its timeless combination of ash and maple for the body, neck, and fingerboard feels great in the hands of players of all generations while laying a solid tonal foundation that plays exceptionally well with the Valentine's electronics. Speaking of electronics, EBMM outfitted the Valentine with an incredible set of custom-designed pickups as well as a handy coil split and gain boost — practically every electric guitar tone imaginable can be summoned by the Valentine! Even the hardware has been meticulously chosen for quality and reliability, with a Music Man Modern hardtail bridge and Schaller locking tuners to keep everything in tune while you slay onstage.
