The Blood Moon Venus needs no introduction, becoming a legend in its own lifetime using one of Indonesia’s finest – but only more recently popularised – tonewoods: Trembesi. Debuted in 2017, the Blood Moon Venus has won multiple awards and accolades, exciting the more adventurous guitarist with its endless variation of beautiful grain patterns and sweet tonal delivery.
Rated 5.0 out of 5
The importance of body shape:
The lefthanded version of the Venus: one of the three initial Faith body shapes launched in the winter of 2002. The Venus has become a reference point as the style that strikes the ideal balance of size and sound. Thanks to its 15" lower bout and shallower body, the Venus is comfortable to play for long periods yet doesn’t sacrifice tone or acoustic power.
Which tonewoods are used and why?
Trembesi wood has long been sought after by furniture manufacturers for its magnificent beauty and stunning variety of patterns, but we've more recently been persuaded of its tonal capabilities too. A good Trembesi instrument, like Hawaiian Koa, behaves similarly to Mahogany, offering warmth and balance throughout the strings but with the addition of a little more sparkle at the high-end.
How does it all come together?
This stunning guitar offers a visual treat for both you and your audience, with compliments sure to follow. Whether unplugged or amplified, you’ll also discover an instrument that reliably delivers a balanced tone, perfect for singer-songwriters and strummers. The special 'Blood Moon' burst finish is enhanced even further by solid flamed Maple binding and a solid Ebony fingerboard, bridge, pins, and headstock fascia.
The Electronics:
Amplifying your BloodMoon is simple thanks to the Fishman INK3 preamp and s-core pickup system. The undersaddle piezo pickup is controlled by a side-mounted, flush-fitting preamp with 3 band EQ and a built-in tuner. The output socket is mounted into the end of the guitar with an ingeniously integrated battery box and separate strap button.
The Case:
To ensure that your beautiful new instrument is well protected and cared for, your guitar is complete with a woodshell hard case, with padded plush interior. We do recommend that you keep your guitar in the hardcase whenever not in use, although quite why you wouldn't be playing it, we can't imagine!
