Crown is thrilled to bring this exceptional instrument to you on Reverb. Each Valkenburg guitar and bass is meticulously handcrafted in Las Vegas, Nevada, by Daniel and his skilled team, producing only 5-6 instruments per week, ensuring each piece is truly unique. Due to their handcrafted nature, no two finishes are exactly alike, but players consistently praise their unparalleled playability and performance consistency.
