Here for sale we have a Faith FKV Naked Venus Electro Acoustic Guitar in Natural Satin finish. Made in Indonesia in 2019, this all-solid acoustic consists of a Solid Engelmann Spruce top, Solid Indonesian Mahogany back and sides, a Mahogany neck, and a 20-fret Indonesian Ebony fingerboard. Other appointments include Enclosed Chrome machine heads and a Fishman Presys system that has controls for volume,contour, phase, and an onboard tuner.
The satin finish neck feels smooth and quick in the hand, with a moderate profile that the vast majority of players will get along with. The venetian cutaway gives great access to the high register and the Venus body style sits in a happy middle ground, similar to OM/Auditorium body style that give a full and responsive playing experience without being needlessly cumbersome.
The all-solid-wood construction makes for a lively and dynamic instrument that responds well to the touch, with the Engelmann Spruce top giving excellent clarity and midrange punch, while the Indonesian Mahogany back and sides offer plenty of warmth and a smooth transient response. The Fishman Presys Preamp really enhances the voice of the guitar, in a simple and easy-to-use package, great for gigging with.
