Suzanne
United Kingdom on 02/07/2011
"Stunning, I simply love it. The sound took me aback because it is so "big". It was intended as a 2nd best guitar to my Martin 0-18. However, it's equal in most respects & better in some (e.g.fret finishing). Minor gripe....I hoped for Gold Grovers."
Brian
United Kingdom on 16/06/2020
"love the look. Saddle height was high so I had to take it down. Love it.
I'd like to know if I can change the pickp. I think this one has a shadow system, but I'd like the Fishman Ink. Can I get one from you and will it fit?"
Tim
United States on 09/05/2020
"I am very familiar with Faith guitars and have wanted this model for ages. I bought it without trying it and I'm very happy I did. It has a very strong and melodic voice for a smaller body and nice to play with the 45mm nut. "

Hsu-en

"I'm totally excited about this guitar. I already have some guitars, including other Parlor models. The Faith Mercury Parlor beats them all in workmanship, design and especially in sound. In spite of the small body shape, it delivers a good performance - especially in the bass range. The general volume of this instrument is also - in comparison - loud and especially impressive."
Mario
Germany on 16/10/2019
"The workmanship and finish is outstanding, it's perfect in every way. The sound resonates so well and blows other so called high end makes out the water. PJE has excelled at his craft and choice of woods . Overall it's a 99% from me. Thanks to all involved."
Kenny

Sean
United Kingdom on 30/08/2019
"Initial review after a few days of use:
A really fantastic guitar, superbly made and beautiful to look at. Everything about this guitar (sound quality, construction, finish, solid woods, parts used, ease of use) is way above the expected quality for the price (also, the "scoop" is a truly great idea - I wondered how much it difference it would make, and the answer is "a lot") - seriously, this easily competes with guitars at twice it's cost of purchase. Setup on arrival was perfect also - thanks for that, a nice touch that is always appreciated.
Construction is very solid and I have high hopes that it will last a lifetime of use - really looking forward to how it will sound in 20 years! Thanks Faith, great guitar. "

"The outside finish is very good on the whole, a little messy where the fretboard lies on the body. Sounds beautiful feels solid like a German car. The inside finishing is quite poor with poor joints and excessive glue. Disappointing as I had purchased on the understanding faith guitars were finished really well. "
Sean

"A great acoustic guitar, beautiful to play and sounds rich in tone.
Wasnt looking for a parlour, just a good acoustic.
But when the guy from the shop showed me this to try I fell in love and couldnt leave it in the store.
I hadnt even researched this guitar and its rare these days to buy a product without reading review after review but it sold itself which is the way it should be. "

Paul

"Construction, fit and finish is of a very high standard, characteristic of significantly more expensive instruments. Bright, lively yet full & rich acoustic tone; unexpected from a guitar this size. Nice amplified tone too. Very comfortable to play, smooth & silky. Outstanding value for money. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend."
Andrew
United Kingdom on 04/11/2017
"In 50 years playing experience this is the best guitar I've handled across the price range. It suits my finger style to a tee and is the one I've been looking for all these years. It sounds great and looks so beautiful I'm scared of scratching it !!
Thanks to Steve at Crazy Train Music who helped me finally get what I was after."

Tim

"Overall quite happy, though some goop from the top is visible on the rosewood binding in places, some bits of glue standing proud on the neck making it feel rough sliding hand over it, and action is a bit high but that can be changed."
David
United Kingdom on 28/8/2015
"I love the sound of this guitar - however it isn't quite there yet (even at 700pounds). The intonation is slightly sharp at the higher notes - I'm guessing this is due to the action being slightly high - which I will tend to in due course. Checked the neck with a fret rocker and there are a few high frets - I'm being picky though because of the cost. "
Richard

"Absolute love it .....such a lovely little thing and I love the hard case too. These guitars are VERY hard to find down here so I suggest that is looked into. Overall very happy 8/10....the best 'Parlour' I've tried - all the rest sound weird or a massive compromise .... "
WARREN
Australia on 20/06/2015
"It's so easy to play, especially when I am not such a good guitar player. The Faith Mercury is small and beautiful, it's made out of solid rosewood en spruce which result in a very warm, loud but controlled sound. This guitar is ringing and singing. You feel and you hear the quality and the workmanship that was put into it. Never thought of buying a Faith guitar actually. "

"This is an absolutely fabulous guitar! My other acoustic is a Lowden S25c, so is a considerable yard stick to measure it against. Very well set-up, incredible tone which can only get better and a lovely short scale to give my fingerstyle hands a break. I'd done a lot of research before purchasing the Mercury Natural and now would not hesitate recommending to anyone"

"I am 64 and have played many guitars in the last 40-odd years. Never before have I seen such finish and quality straight out of the box (beautifully packed by music scotland by the way). On changing the strings for my favourite Elixir strings I came across my only slight problem.The lovely ebony bridge pins are too loose and the inner ends are not tapered as they should be, with the consequence that they pop out too readily.<br />
As for the sound and playability, it is absolutely wonderful and although I did my research before buying I was nervous still. I needn't have been. Thank you Faith - nice work.<br />

Colin

"There are two types of guitarist in this world: those who have a Faith Mercury HiGloss and those who have yet to try one. Utterly charming. What makes it great, at any price, is its build quality, wonderful playability and sweet tonal variety. "
