Valiant Guitars is a high brand based in Ukraine.

The organising Gavrilenko brothers have over 30 years' experience in guitar making, but have never lost their passion and continue to explore new things.
Of the brothers, Vadim plays bass and Dima is a musician who also plays guitar.
This is why they continue to explore and improve their own ideas for their respective styles from a musician's point of view.

Many parts, such as the bridge, saddle and nut, are made by hand.
This makes the products more faithful to the brand concept and uncompromising.

The two brothers continue to evolve the history of guitar craft since their father's time and the brand is constantly progressing.

This model is a gem from the flagship TNT series.
Developed with professional musician Alexander Titov, the TNT series is designed for live and studio use.

It has a respect for Fender's style, but is also developed for more diverse ensembles.

Coloured in a beautiful see-through colour, this one has an alder body back and flame maple top.

The neck is a 7-piece laminate type and is constructed by normal and roasted maple.
It is reinforced with titanium for strength and has a beautiful "Diamond Volute" at the base of the neck where it begins to angle.

The B-system preamp system, powered by 18V, provides only a 5db boost and does not add any colour to the sound.
It has an excellent two-band EQ, which provides the appropriate sound make-up.

Like the preamp, the pickups are of the original design, with dual coils on the front and a single coil on the rear.
The front PU can be switched between parallel, single and series wiring via a toggle switch.

Controls include volume, balancer, treble, bass and a 3-way SW for switching the PU wiring.

Sound-wise, the guitar has an attractive low-frequency volume with juicy overtones.
Depending on the wiring of the front pickup, it is possible to create a PB-like nuance or boost the volume even more, and when the balance with the rear PU is included, it can be said that there are a great many variations.

The main attraction is that all combinations sound beautiful.
I feel that it means that the acoustic is already in place.

This is a gem from a legitimate and strong brand that continues to grow in the beautiful country of Ukraine.
Please give it a try.

The remaining frets are roughly 80%.
The truss rod is a little stiff, but we have confirmed that it works at about 90°.
The neck is in good condition.
The body and paintwork are in good condition with a few inconspicuous scratches. The rest of the body is very clean and can be described as like new.
No obvious modifications were found.

Controls : master volume - push/pull switch (active/passive), balancer, treble, bass, 3-way mini switch (neck pickup - series/coil tap/parallel).
Nut width : 45.0 mm
Pitch between strings at bridge : 18.0 mm
Year of manufacture : 2023
Country of manufacture : UKRAINE
Accessories : Original hard case

The D'addario EXL, which is trusted by professional musicians, is used in the set-up.
Characterised by a powerful attack and rich overtones, the performance is truly worthy of being called a standard.
These high-quality strings maximise the performance and character of the instrument, so please enjoy them as well.

The GIB craftsmen have adjusted them to make them easy to play and deliver them to you.
