My Name is Mathieu BERTRAND-DEMANES, I live in France (city of Nantes). I ‘ve got this Valley Art Custom Pro since 1995. I bought it in a retail store in Nantes, I’m not sure for model and options (I’m not expert enough) but it is in a very good condition 30 years after. The serial number is VA01904, so I guess it’s a pre-samick one. It has a huge emotional value, so It’s not for sale at all. I did not change anything on it, we can say it is in original condition.

For the story, I am not a guitar hero, but I was a teenager in 1995 (16 years old) and I lost my old brother the year before. When he passed away, I received some money by the insurance company and I decided to bought a really good guitar with this money. I was almost looking for a collection piece and one day I found this beautiful Purple and gold Valley Art (The color was more purple at the beginning) I didn’t know this brand but it sounded beautiful and the sales man told me that Valley arts guitars was hand made with a serial number so I decided to buy it and I never regreted.

That all I can say about this guitar.

Regards,
Mathieu
