Faith - FKVBK - Naked Venus Cut/Electro Black Stain Guitar with Gig Bag

A TRULY STUNNING GUITAR WITH A DISTINCTIVE VOICEContinuing on from the acclaimed Naked series of Faith Acoustic Guitars, these thru-black models offer the same rich sonic performance you would expect from an all-solid wood guitar, but feature a special 'thru black' finish with black fittings and hardware.

Using a hand-rubbed stain, rather than a sprayed paint finish, you get a unique look with each guitar. Spruce and Mahogany also have differing cellular structures, so there is natural variation in the way that the stain takes to each peice of tonewood. This stunning course of nature is especially noticeable on the Spruce top, as in some areas, the black stain will be absorbed more than others, creating an individual patina to each and every model. Some will be more uniform black, some will have a more visible wooden pattern.

In keeping with all other Naked series guitars, the Spruce top and Mahogany body of each of the Faith Naked instruments are 100% solid tonewood. The cosmetics and non-essential dressing has been stripped away, so these guitars are beautifully exposed in their natural, Naked state. With a Satin finish all over, the tonewood is almost completely unrestricted in its resonant movement, so the tone delivered is far beyond what is normally expected at this price range.

Venus is the iconic guitar shape that gained Faith Guitars their great reputation from so many players over the years. The combination of a 15" lower bout and a slimmer depth of bodylooks to classic OM or Auditorium body-shapes is what makes the Venus the perfect compromise. This guitar is still big enough to deliver a big acoustic performance, and small enough for the player freely move around on stage.

The Naked Venus comes equipped with a Fishman Presys1 preamp and sonicore undersaddle pickup. The preamp features a contour EQ, Volume control, Phase button and integrated tuner. A padded Faith Gigbag is also included with all Naked series guitars.
