Victor Bailey – man, what a resume! … To quote Victor, “I’ve played on over
one thousand recordings with everyone from Weather Report, to Michael
Brecker, to LL Cool J, to Mary J. Blige.” Victor’s the bass player’s bass player
– first-call session player, solo artist, and even acoustic bassist extraordinaire.
When we started working on the Victor Bailey signature acoustic basses, we
spent several days with Victor, playing different instruments and working on
concepts for acoustic basses. The result is a highly personal instrument, one
that could only come from close personal involvement with the artist.
The Victor Bailey signature acoustic basses feature a beautiful arched back,
figured dao body, abalone rosette, tortoise shell binding, a bound 34”-scale
neck that replicates Victor’s signature Fender

licensed lightweight tuners, Fishman

Victor Bailey Acoustic Bass Five String
John 5 is one of those guitarists who is instantly recognizable – from
Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie – and is a pure metal shredder, right?
Well, partially … While John is one of the most in-demand virtuoso
shredders around, he’s also a fine, fine guitar player in almost any genre
you can think of – rock, country chickin’ pickin’, and yes – even acoustic
guitar. The J5 signature acoustic was designed in conjunction with John
to satisfy a variety of needs – great stage appearance, and fantastic
playability and tone, electric or acoustic.
The J5 signature acoustic features a gloss Black body with chrome
pickguard, a solid spruce top, mahogany neck, back and sides, chrome
die-cast tuners, a Florentine (sharp) cutaway, the John 5 Telecaster
®
headstock, and Fishman
®
Classic IV T electronics (featuring a built-in
tuner).

Americana – It’s a genre that encompasses a whole lot of American music
– country, roots rock, bluegrass, rockabilly, and other music that seems
to defy categorization. While any discussion is subject to argument, the
defining feature of the Americana seems to be authenticity. Nobody
defines authenticity, or Americana, like Grammy

– songwriter, recording artist, sideman, producer and engineer, and winner
of the Americana Music award of 2005 for best album and best song. After
almost two years of close collaboration with Buddy, we’re proud to announce
our newest signature model acoustic bearing Buddy’s name.
The Buddy Miller Signature Acoustic features all-solid construction, with a
solid spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides, a custom Fender neck, the
iconic Stratocaster

headstock, checkerboard binding and rosette, and the
Fishman

Ellipse Aura system, (allowing you to blend between the four on
board mic’d sounds and the under-the-saddle pickup).
