(Gloss Black)
A TRULY STUNNING GUITAR WITH A DISTINCTIVE VOICEFaith Eclipse models are designed to be the ultimate ‘stage guitars,’ with workhorse reliability and maximum performance capability, they also look great in the spotlight. The classic combination of a Solid Spruce Top and Solid Mahogany back and sides deliver superb unplugged sound, with an ideal blend of presence and full-bodied tone. The onyx black finish, covered with carefully applied, clear lacquer, helps to tame the tonewood’s natural resonance, producing a reassuringly balanced and focused tone when amplified, yet retaining that essential warmth in the midrange.
As you step onstage and plug-in, you’ll feel your new Eclipse really come to life. The upgraded onboard electronics - in the form of Fishman’s revolutionary INK BODY preamp system - have been carefully selected to enhance amplified performance by combining the clarity of a traditional undersaddle piezo pickup with the tonal richness of a body sensor. This system not only takes amplified sound to incredible new heights, but it also allows for improved note expression whether you’re playing chords or complex fingerstyle pieces.

More Tone Control Than Ever Before
maximum comfort and playabilityA ‘body’ control knob on the discreet Fishman preamp fascia allows players to intuitively dial in the bridge-plate mounted sensor alongside the piezo, under-saddle pickup, offering greater control over the level of body-derived tone or percussion in the mix. You will have more control over your tone than ever before.
You’ll also notice that for the first time in our history - and in a move that truly brings the Eclipse name to life - a beautiful, Figured Maple ergonomic forearm contour has been shaped to the guitar body to maximise comfort and playability. This Maple arm contour is matched by the stunning figured maple binding that covers the outer edges of each instrument.
Beautifully Finished
Ultra-comfortableIn line with Faith's continued commitment to ethical and sustainable manufacturing processes, these new Eclipse guitars are free from all animal products: traditional Abalone and Mother of Pearl rosette and logo materials have been replaced with beautifully figured maple. And just as with all other Faith Guitars, for every guitar that finds a new home, they plant trees in with ‘JustOneTree’.
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.
Every Guitar Includes Professional Setup
It doesn’t matter what the value of the guitar, if you buy it from us we take extra steps to ensure you are completely satisfied with your instrument. Each guitar goes through a 22 step professional guitar set up process to make sure your new instrument sounds as the manufacturer intended it to play.
This means that your guitar may take an extra day to deliver, just so we can get these checks done. You’ll receive email updates once your guitar is ready for despatch.
We hope you feel it’s worth the extra time and patience we spend on your instrument.
