Full Description

Electric sound that doesn't compromise

Take control over your sound. The Music Man St. Vincent comes equipped with an electronics system that gives you unparalleled choice over your guitar's tone. A pair of specially-designed humbuckers will bring a meaty, booming quality to your music. And they're built to eliminate noise interference, too, meaning that your playing will always benefit from excellent clarity.

You can alter the pickups to suit your own sonic needs. The St. Vincent comes with a 5-way pickup selector and tone control, allowing you to shape your ideal sound. You can quickly switch from one pickup configuration to another, making the guitar perfect for changing your sound onstage. Versatile electronics to make your live performances better than ever.

Experiment at will

Every guitarist yearns to craft a sound that's entirely their own. You can do exactly that with the St. Vincent. A custom-made modern tremolo bridge allows you to experiment with tremolo in your music, providing a unique, distinctive edge. It's particularly good for use in your lead lines, and will help make your solos stand out. Explore the limits of your creativity.

The best in guitar construction

This is built to last. Only the most premium tonewoods have been used in crafting the St. Vincent. Its African mahogany body brings booming depth, emphasising anything played at the low end of the guitar's scale. Ideal for ferocious power chords. It's also supremely lightweight, meaning you can play on for hours with the St. Vincent on your shoulder without suffering from strain.

A roasted figured maple neck adds brightness to your tone, helping your solos and lead lines sound sharp. And smooth playability is brought into the St. Vincent thanks to its sleek ebony fingerboard. Your fingers can dance and fly across the frets at high speed thanks to the ebony's speedy playing action. These solid woods are all superbly durable, meaning you can be sure that in the St. Vincent, you've got a guitar to last for years to come.

Total tuning stability

Ask any guitarist. They'll all tell you that one of the most irritating things that can happen when playing is dropping out of tune. The St. Vincent has been crafted to ensure the likelihood of this happening is reduced to the absolute minimum. Schaller locking tuners hold your strings in place, allowing you to stay pitch perfect for as long as possible. So you can be certain that your playing will always sound precise. The key to the perfect performance.

Style that stands out from the crowd

There aren't many guitars out there that look this distinctive. The Music Man St. Vincent is certain to command the attention of every audience member at your gigs. Its individual, jagged body shape hints at the aggressive, sharp sonic power that this guitar possesses. A charcoal sparkle finish is understated and unmistakably cool, but will still stand out and shine beneath stage lights. A one-off design.

Genre-spanning sound

Versatility. You'd expect nothing less from an instrument designed with genre-hopping songstress St. Vincent. Her incredibly unique musical style has seen her lend from a vast range of playing styles, employing rock, jazz, electro, and more in her music. So her signature Music Man model is designed to accommodate all of these styles, meaning it's the perfect guitar for anyone looking to play with an eclectic range. You won't be limited in what you can do.
