Faith Venus Blue Moon Burst Mango Electro Acoustic with Hardcase

A truly stunning, exotic beauty with a distinctive voice.

The Venus Blue Moon is a truly individual instrument. One of the advantages of genuinely solid, natural tonewoods is that each piece of solid timber used will vary in its natural colouration and its particular grain patterns. So, your Blue Moon will be as unique as you and your music.

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.

It is still big enough to deliver a big acoustic performance yet remains small enough for the player to jump around on stage with no problem. 

Key Features

• Mango Wood Body - Tonally, Mango has an interesting character. It is not as loud and punchy as rosewood nor as straightforwardly mellow as mahogany, yet it bears its own distinctive warmth. With frequency prominence starting a little below that of mahogany and dropping off a little earlier in the mid-range, the overall tone could be described as dark and moody. Much like maple guitars, the reduced level of resonant overtones makes the Mango-bodied Blue Moon a perfect stage guitar: controllable, balanced, and resistant to feedback.
• Fishman Preamp System - This Faith Guitar is fitted with the refined, low-profile Fishman INK3 preamp system with the Sonicore piezo pickup located under the saddle. The preamp features a chromatic tuner, 3 band EQ and volume control. The output jack is located at the base of the guitar as part of the ingenious, easy-access battery compartment.
• A Perfect Finish - Finished with flamed Maple binding, Macassan Ebony fittings, Fishman Electronics and complete in a hard case, your Faith Venus Blue Moon is sure to intrigue and delight you at every turn.
