Faith Naked Venus Electro Auditorium Acoustic Guitar - All Mahogany

With Faith's Naked Series everything is stripped away and you are just left with the simple tonewood finish. The Naked range is about bringing Faiths amazing guitars to a wider market through a simpler less flash design and focus just on the sound of the guitar. The very soul of the Guitar exposed. Uncomplicated, unadorned with unnecessary cosmetics, Faith Naked instruments use high quality, solid tonewoods, with a simple satin finish that lets the guitar breathe and move with no restriction.

The Venus is the now iconic shape that brought Faith Guitars to the consciousness of so many players over the years. The combination of a 15″ lower bout and a slimmer depth of body looks to classic OM or Auditorium body-shapes for inspiration, and makes the Venus the perfect compromise.

It is still big enough to deliver a big acoustic performance, yet remains small enough for the player to jump around on stage with no problem.

Faith All-Mahogany models deliver a clear tone which is very sweet and woody with plenty of mid-range articulation.

Using Mahogany for both the top and body of a guitar makes for a very “friendly” instrument that responds well to hard picking, strumming and finger-style techniques alike. Further to this, the sound produced is unburdened by overly audible overtones and harmonics, so they perform brilliantly when recording.

The FKVMG is equipped with a Fishman Presys1 preamp system which features a contour EQ control, Volume control, Phase button and an integrated tuner.

All Naked guitars are now supplied with a padded Faith Gigbag.
