The Ernie Ball Music Man St. Vincent Signature is a guitar developed with musician Annie Clark, known professionally as St. Vincent, featuring an unconventional body shape she co-designed specifically to be comfortable for a player, breaking from the traditional curves most electric guitars retain from decades-old templates. It carries active or high-output humbuckers suited to her heavily processed, effects-driven lead tone. Jack White is associated with this instrument in this catalogue, though Clark rather than White is the models actual signature artist.
