Overview

Premium woods and electronics set this guitar apart.

This BFR Valentine features a double bound ash body with maple top in a striking Walnut flame finish. The 3-ply white/black/white pickguard matches the white neck and body binding for a complete uniformed look. White pearl block inlays adorn an ebony fretboard atop a roasted figured maple neck. This guitar is also outfitted with a Herringbone skunk strip on the back of the neck for a unique appearance that is not offered on standard models.
