Introducing Goldie, the brand new, reimagined St. Vincent signature guitar from Ernie Ball Music Man. Goldie features a lightweight okoume body, roasted figured maple neck with reversed headstock, and rosewood or ebony fretboard (depending on color option). A trio of newly-designed Ernie Ball Music Man gold foil mini humbucking pickups and an intuitive 5-way switching arrangement combine to provide a bright and bold clarity with moderate output. The redesigned 3-ply parchment pickguard has been relocated underneath the pickups for a more traditional aesthetic. The St. Vincent Goldie also includes stainless steel frets, chrome hardware, and a smooth-action St. Vincent Music Man tremolo with solid brass saddles. Goldie retains many of the familiar elements of previous St. Vincent models, such as custom parchment control knobs, pearl tuning keys, Schaller locking tuners, and custom St. Vincent signature inlays.

Features
- St Vincent modern trem solid brass saddles
- Music Man custom gold foil mini humbuckers
- Custom St Vincent inlay reverse headstock

ST. Vincent Goldie - Premium Roasted Maple Necks
The St. Vincent "Goldie" collection features premium flame roasted maple necks with either a rosewood fretboard on the Velveteen finish, or Ebony on the Silk Charmeuse and Cashmere finish.

Matching Headstocks
The STV Goldie comes in three distinct colors options: Cashmere, Silk Charmeuse, and Velveteen featuring a reverse color matching painted headstock.

Gold Foil Pickups
All gold foils have Alnico 5 magnets with a unique construction that is inspired by early firebird mini humbucking pickups and vintage gold foil single-coil pickups. The result is a vintage-sounding set of pickups with plenty of chime without being harsh. The bridge pickup has a little more output and a rounded top end for a nice bite with an extra push that isn't overly bright. The pickups are also wax potted to avoid unwanted microphonics.
