Guitars that look great, and punch above their weight when it comes to features, build quality and overall sound. Faith's Hi-Gloss series of acoustic guitars are lacquered to look stunning but without choking the all important vibration of the wood. As a result of the combination of this and the materials used for the top and back, the Faith Neptune has a very controlled bass end with sweet and detailed mids and a bright-but-not-brash top end.
This Neptune model has a solid spruce top, ebony fingerboard and a Shadown Nanoflex II pickup system with Shadow preamp. Not only does this guitar feel and sound like a quality acoustic should, it performs in a live environment too thanks to the versatile preamp.
Here's what Faith say about the High Gloss Series Neptune Electro Acoustic Guitar
Visually and aurally captivating, Faith HiGloss series guitars use a gloss-lacquered Solid Engelmann Spruce top matched to HiGloss finished Solid Rosewood on the back and sides. The classic combination of Spruce and Rosewood delivers a bright and harmonically rich timbre that is sure to impress. Faith HiGloss series guitars are bound with Solid Flamed Maple and feature Macassan Ebony fingerboards, headplates, heelplates, bridges and bridge pins. Electro models feature the Shadow NanoFlex II undersaddle pickup and Shadow SH863 preamp system.
All Faith Guitars are complete with a Faith Hardcase.
