Sterling by Music Man Valentine Chambered Bigsby Electric Guitar – Butterscotch

Modern versatility meets vintage-style expression in James Valentine’s chambered Bigsby-equipped signature model.

The 2023 Sterling by Music Man Valentine takes the original, highly acclaimed design and evolves it with a chambered White Ash body and an iconic Bigsby B50 tailpiece. Co-designed with Grammy-winning guitarist James Valentine, this model blends expressive vibrato, lightweight resonance, and effortless playability in one beautifully refined package.

Retaining the core features players loved — roasted maple neck, locking tuners, SH pickup configuration and a powerful 12dB push/push boost — the updated Valentine delivers a dynamic and versatile tone platform suited for clean articulation, warm vintage textures and modern punch. Whether you're exploring ambient chords, shimmering vibrato or tight rhythmic lines, the Valentine is built to inspire.
