Faith Guitars Announce the Launch of the Blue Moon Series ‘Venus’
The Venus OM Cutaway / Auditorium is the
iconic shape that brought us to the consciousness of so many players over the
years. It now becomes the second shape to grace the Blue Moon series following
the launch of the Blue Moon Neptune Baby-Jumbo model in 2019.
The Faith Venus Blue Moon adds a new
element to the series with its slimmed down body size and depth vs. the Neptune
model. The Venus shape tones down the low-end frequencies a little, and in
return ramps up the mid frequencies to produce a sweet voice with excellent
clarity.
It uses Solid Figured Java Mango tone woods
throughout the top, back and sides and is matched with a Flamed Maple binding,
Macassan Figured Ebony fittings, and a Mahogany neck with a Macassan Figured
Ebony fingerboard.
The Solid Java body wood features a
translucent blue / indigo finish that brings the beautifully varied flamed
grains to life – all accentuated by an all-over high gloss finish for a truly
stunning looking acoustic guitar.
Tonally, players can expect a unique and
interesting character from the Venus Blue Moon. Not as loud and punchy as
rosewood nor as straightforwardly mellow as mahogany - it bears its own
distinctive warmth.
The overall tone could be described as dark and
moody. With reduced level of resonant overtones, the Blue Moon Venus
is eminently controllable, balanced and resistant to feedback.
As with all our guitars, electronics come
courtesy of Fishman - in the case of the Venus Blue Moon, the discreet and
low-profile Fishman INK3 preamp system with Sonicore under-saddle piezo pickup.
The preamp features a chromatic tuner, 3 band EQ and volume control.
