Exclusively available from Play Music Today (PMT), this guitar features a solid all-Trembesi body with a Honey Stain top. Indigenous to the Indonesian island of Java and growing freely amongst the (commercially maintained) timber plantations, Trembesi has an appearance not unlike Hawaiian Koa.
Each guitar will feature its own distinct figuring: Some with straight, pronounced vertical grains; Some with horizontal 'flaming'; and even some with a combination of the two – all beautifully brought to life with a light-brown Honey Stain. Trembesi reacts similarly to Mahogany, delivering warmth and balance across the strings, but has an extra little rosewood-eque sparkle at the top end.
This model is part of our series of PMT exclusive Naked Venus guitars alongside the Naked Venus Cut/Electro Mango Honey Stain (FKVMHS).
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. In fact, the Naked Venus was voted 'The UK's Best Acoustic Guitar' at the MIA Music Awards in 2013.
The Naked Venus is equipped with a Fishman Presys1 preamp and sonicore undersaddle pickup. The preamp features a contour EQ, Volume control, Phase button and integrated tuner.
All Naked guitars are now supplied with a padded Faith Gigbag.
