Looks can be deceiving. This is not yet-another-strat copy.
Thor, introduced last year, is my masterpiece. Following Thor, I proudly announce Valkyrie. It shares the electronics of Thor, but avoiding the more expensive Carbon Fiber construction. An XR-Spectra mono pickup is added for quick connection to traditional effects and amps.
- Infinite multichannel (polyphonic) sustain
- Multichannel direct to DAW audio with BOSS/Roland GK-13 pin outputs via Nexus-GK
- Control voltage (CV) to MIDI via Nexus-GK
- XR-Spectra full-range mono pickup
- Tone Block passive resonant filter
Have a look at the pictures of Valkyrie x001 below. The very first, meant to be a production prototype. Valkyrie is actually a refinement and total upgrade to Iron Man, the original Infinity project’s workhorse prototype. Apart from the electronics, Valkyrie sports:
- Flamed Maple neck
- Alder Body
- GOTOH cosmo-black tuners
- Wilkinson by GOTOH cosmo-black trem
- Graphtech Black Tusq nut
- Stainless Steel frets
It took us months to refine Valkyrie. There’s a story behind Valkyrie x001 I’d like to share later. For now, enjoy the pictures. Click the pictures to zoom into the details.
Are these available for purchase somewhere?
There was only one, and it got sold quickly. We are planning to bring this to production. Send us a message if you want to be placed in the waiting list: https://www.cycfi.com/contact/
