Here for sale we have a Faith Mars FRESB45 Drop Shoulder electro-acoustic Guitar in Classic Burst finish. Made in Indonesia in 2022, this guitar features an all solid construction comprising a Red Cedar top, Indonesian Mahogany back and sides, an Indonesian Mahogany neck and an 18 fret Macassar Ebony fingerboard with matching bridge. A set of Chrome Grover tuning machines are featured along with a TUSQ saddle & nut. A Fishman Sonitone undersaddle piezo pickup is installed, and is wired to a Fishman Sonitone on-board preamp with soundhole mounted controls for master volume and tone.
The Indonesian Mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand, with a profile that resembles a ‘D’ providing easy fretting in any register and ergonomic thumb positioning up and down the neck. The Satin finish to the rear of the neck provides a comfortable, smooth playing surface, along with the Macassar Ebony fingerboard offering a luxurious and pleasant feeling under the fingers, yielding a smooth playing surface. The 16” radius ensures that fingerstyle players & singer/songwriter strummers are equally well catered for. The Dreadnought body design ensures this instrument is comfortable and practical to play in seated or standing positions without feeling cumbersome.
The acoustic voice of the Mars FRESB45 is balanced and rich, providing great projection and good volume due its all- solid construction. The Solid Indonesian Mahogany back and sides enhance the character of the tone, producing a smooth mid range and responsive and strong bass that is complemented well with the brightness of the Solid Red Cedar top. Furthermore the Spruce top projects beautifully, delivering ample volume and dynamic range whilst retaining clarity throughout. The Fishman Sonitone undersaddle pickup faithfully conveys the acoustic voice of the instrument whilst the soundhole mounted control make for effortless & discrete tonal changes, making this guitar a perfect partner for any working musician
