Hello community. I want to express a huge thank you to Agufish for showcasing these guitars to the world. I live in Ukraine and am incredibly proud that companies like Valiant Guitars have the opportunity to do their work now. You can't even imagine how challenging it is today, besides living in stress every day, there is no certainty about tomorrow, and on top of that, there is a huge pile of details that become obstacles to normal business functioning. Thank you Valiant Guitars, I am proud of who you are, don't stop, keep doing your thing!
If this war is as horrific as the media makes it seem then why hasn't all production moved to making products to help the war effort instead of luxury boutique guitars?
@@jagerking7020 Hello. Actually, this war is truly dreadful, and even more dreadful than you see it in the media, believe me. When people out of context ask such questions, it's quite difficult to find the right words to explain. Firstly, you need to understand that to produce something, you need funds for it. If all businesses switch to internal production, the country's budget will stop receiving funds from the export of goods, hence there will be no money for this production itself. Secondly, exports involve drawing funds from the budgets of other countries, meaning direct earnings, and that's why businesses engaged in exports should continue to do so, in this case, it's Valiant Guitars. Thirdly, I would understand if it were a giant production with a powerful, large production line with adjustable processes that could be reconfigured, but that's not the case. Well, the fourth point I would like to highlight is that it's better to sell one neck made of roasted maple for, let's say, $1000 and buy 300 shovel handles with that money, rather than producing one shovel handle from a blank intended for a neck made of roasted maple. Explaining why the export business should operate in conditions of full-scale war can take hours.
Unfortunately, TH-cam has blocked my response to you, so I'm unable to provide a thorough explanation as to why you seem to be misinterpreting the context@@jagerking7020
@@jagerking7020Because a factory can't just start making completely different products? Because people still need to earn money, including boutique luthiers? What a stupid comment
@@jagerking7020 You know, this war it's just a business. Simple people in Ukraine are just the captives, who even can't leave abroad. Actually, most people in Ukraine don't want to fight.
If i were designing a guitar, a lot of the specs i'd choose are accounted for here. Single modern voiced humbucker, brass (slot) nut, stainless steel frets, LP-inspired body shape, etc. Such a beautiful guitar and some truly incredible build quality. Demo track fucks hard by the way. Could totally hear Andy Biersack or Howard Jones singing over it.
Wow!! Been watching you forever, and that may be the best song you’ve ever done. I could literally hear Jesse Leach from KSE in my head singing over that. Great job, and awesome guitar!!
I really like those except for the “smith” on the headstock. Just looks a little dated or cheap in my personal opinion. I think it would be way better if it was gone or if there was just a valiant symbol or logo in the middle of the headstock. But of course to each their own and they are still really cool guitars and probably feel and play amazingly well.
Went fishing for some early 2000’s and caught big one! Great demo song 💪 Getting some Thrice vibes from it. I’ve been feeling nostalgic and learning a bunch of songs back from their 2003 album "The Artist in the Ambulance" (which if anyone loves this demo song and have not listened to that then I highly suggest to give it a listen).
Oh, dude! What an insane riff! Thank you for your kind words, guidance and recommendations! Watching this guitar on the video is different from watching it at the shop. Already got ideas on how to make it more attractive, for the lack of more descriptive word, better for the next run. Cheers, dude! It’s been honor and pleasure finally meeting you in person!
I love the whole idea of the Valiant brand and I support Ukraine 100%. You make unreal looking, sounding, and spec'd out instruments from what I can tell.
I remember the one they sent Trogly. One of the most beautiful single cuts and guitars period I've ever seen. This black ones pretty too, but his was a showpiece for sure. Their offsets are amazing too, that pink one you had before giving away was a beast.
Agufish there is another custom shop brand in Ukraine which might be worthy of your attention - Valravn guitars. However, all the guitars that this workshop makes are headless(and often multiscale). Also the prices of those are very adequate - i thinking to order one by myself.
@@kapitanpoloten4ik668 I wonder this this is not happening? that's what's hard to understand. In the US during WW2 Virtually all United States manufacturers converted their machinery to build equipment for the military, which was considered essential production. And this included Gibson Guitars, wurliztler etc. Meanwhile we see the world sending billions of dollars yet it seems that in many ways that it's currently "business as usual" in Ukraine with these guitar manufacturers.
As expected it sounded awesome. I personally have loved the shape since you first showed it. It reminds me of a carve top version of Kiesels SCB which I love the look of. What Valiant is doing despite their circumstances is amazing. Glad that you are able to share their work and also do something to give back with the Mola run. Now we wait for the 7 string Jupiter video.
Please do a How-To write riffs like the ones you make for your demos!!!! Do you use theory? Do you noodle your way out until you have something you like?. Can I find this in your Patreon?
I dig that shape, really cool looking, but really love the Jupiter! I knew they were out of my price range, but honestly $3,200 and $4k don't sound so bad, considering some big names like Gibson, Fender, and PRS have similar or higher prices, and these seem like nicer guitars. I do still think I'm nuts for paying $2k for one of my guitars though and can't imagine spending more than that on a guitar, considering I'm just a bedroom guitarist, so I'll live vicariously through you with these 😂

Such a talented young guy - you deserve your 204k subs (dont mean to sound patronising - just typoing whats in my head as I go along!!) Sooooo...... I am just beginning my journey with Valiant. I only ever sell guitars I truly love - that have something special to offer - a unique back story and a human element - obviously they have to be insanely good to - benchmarks for their genre..... Soo..... apart from that I am easy :) I went to the NAMM show this year - I overcame some pretty heavy anxieties leaving family - I have never been apart from my wife in 30 years but my daughter said she would hold my hand (who also has anxieties but thought it would make a fascinating social experiment to see how we would cope on our own - and indeed whether we could get there (you could put a full stop there) and back - all in once piece.

Man I'd love to buy this but $4K is out of reach. It's literally everything I'd want considering the design, controls placement etc. If I had a larger budget I could swing I'd do it just to support them. I'm also eyeing the ESP LTD Deluxe EC-01FT, which is very similar (I don't need the tone knob) for roughly 25% of the cost (also have to consider US import fees). It's not as unique and inspiring though, and frankly feel good for supporting some peeps in a tough tough spot.
Jesus that tone is nasty. Yes warpig +6505 yes. I’ve seen some comparisons of the warpig to other pickups and I think its reduced treble response perfectly balances the inherent dogwhistle sizz on 5150s. Makin me want one! (For my guitar with a fairly trebly burstbucker into a 5150) ..wait you showed the engl. is that what you went with for the track? That call and response was sick! I did feel like there could’ve been more clean bc damn it sounded good esp for some pickups meant fully for ze metalzz
One of your best Demo track mixes, in my opinion. Definitely a kick a$$ one at the least. I love the idea and look of the Valiant guitars, but I'm not sure if they make left-handed versions, and after buying the first left-handed Badlands guitars when they came out my fiancé would kill me if I spent that kind of money on another instrument. They look fundamentally sound and I really like The Smith model. Slava, Ukraini!
Guys any idea what happened to slash epiphone signature models? I can't find them in my country available for some time now. Did they remove them completely?
@@Cereal421 I see, so the model shown in the video isn't the same as shown on the linked product page? I think that's a bit confusing, should've mentioned that in the video. Thanks for the reply!
@@wolfgator Ah, good point. When you said "Smith site" I assumed you were referring to the Smith section of the site in general and not this specific guitar. I wonder if it's a typo on Valiant's part from when they reworked their website a couple months ago.
@@Cereal421 I actually couldn't find any Smith guitar with stainless steel frets on their site. So either they stopped using stainless steel for frets or it's a mistake on their site.
hey guys, i found a guitar on ebay from a japanese seller, i didn’t find it anywhere else (in good condition). i really want it but i’m extremely anxious. i would be paying about two months of salary for it (i’m young and my job isn’t paying me very well yet). the dealer has a sticker of the shop next to the guitars that it has listed, wich calms me, but then has some obviously fake reviews wich worries me again. but then again, what if they just want to boost the (obviously) small shop..? it has free returns if i notify the seller in 60 days and a real instagram page. does anyone have any advice? it is EXACTLY what i'm looking for and the only specimen i can actually afford.
10:29 In the video you show graphics saying the pickup as a Bare Knuckle Aftermath, yet when you talk about the pickup you say it's a Bare Knuckle War Pig?
And the resell value is much lower. I do like the guitar but not sure why you pay 4K for an unknown brand. Again lovely guitar and think it plays great but there are more known custom build guitars out there for 4K with a better resell value
Apples and oranges. Both great options but I can't imagine anybody cross shopping such different guitars. As far as resale value goes that just comes with the territory of buying new from unknown brands. If anything it makes it an even better option if you're buying used and someone else already ate the depreciation.
i think there are some missed spects here man, first is why it says vola in the different parts? and second, it is a war pig or an aftermath pickup bro, you say one and write the other
Don’t trip too much on “Duraluminum”. It’s been around over a hundred years, and it’s just aluminum with a smidge of copper. It’s not like Kovar or Inconel, something that would be truly unique to build a bridge from.

Pretty certain your gallops are NOT triplets but rather hertas. 🤘
Reminds me of the dean evil twin only cooler
You say warping but the video text says aftermath??
Dude, has anybody told you you are crazy of a composer?
10:29 In the video you show graphics saying the pickup as a Bare Knuckle Aftermath, yet when you talk about the pickup you say it's a Bare Knuckle War Pig?
Great looking guitar, but not worth $4k imo. You could get a highly custom Aristides for that price
And the resell value is much lower. I do like the guitar but not sure why you pay 4K for an unknown brand.
Again lovely guitar and think it plays great but there are more known custom build guitars out there for 4K with a better resell value
Apples and oranges. Both great options but I can't imagine anybody cross shopping such different guitars.
As far as resale value goes that just comes with the territory of buying new from unknown brands. If anything it makes it an even better option if you're buying used and someone else already ate the depreciation.
You say it's a Warpig, but your little pop-ups say Aftermath. No hate, but which is it? 😅
That's a damn bueat!
Have you ever played an acoustic guitar?
i think there are some missed spects here man, first is why it says vola in the different parts? and second, it is a war pig or an aftermath pickup bro, you say one and write the other
Lol now you see why I'm looking to build the editing team, I make a ton of dumb little mistakes. Description is fixed, and it's a BKP War Pig!
That's a sweet guitar but not worth the price
Like If you also think that design looks like the Washburn Idol 😅
Cool guitar, but 4k? no thanks.
Don’t trip too much on “Duraluminum”. It’s been around over a hundred years, and it’s just aluminum with a smidge of copper. It’s not like Kovar or Inconel, something that would be truly unique to build a bridge from.
