This is the Ernie Ball Music Man James Valentine signature model, in a special Ball Family Reserve Ivory White finish and a gorgeous roasted flame maple neck. This guitar is an excellent collaboration between the Maroon 5 guitarist and Music Man to create a signature guitar that could do anything Valentine needed it to do onstage during a Maroon 5 set without changing guitars. We think they’ve done a fantastic job, with two custom wound pickups that cover every range of tones you could want out of them, along with some unique under the hood features like a coil tap control as well as an on-board gain boost underneath the volume control.
