Nexus Neptune - Cutaway Electro - Coffee Brown

The importance of body shape:

For those seeking acoustic power and projection, the Neptune is the obvious choice. Not quite on the scale of a full-on 17” traditional ‘jumbo’, the Neptune is 'baby-jumbo' so it's a little easier to handle thanks to the slightly smaller 16” lower bout, yet it still delivers an enormous amount of volume and tonal projection.

This Patrick James Eggle original body shape is equipped with a traditional cutaway design, so the upper frets are within easy reach, making solos or more complex chord shapes much more comfortable to achieve.

Which tonewoods are used and why?

This Nexus Neptune guitar showcases beautiful, figured Javanese Trembesi all over. Indigenous to the Indonesian island of Java, Trembesi delivers a warm and balanced tone akin to Mahogany and the Coffee Brown stain with satin finish helps to bring out even more of the stunning character of this exotic tonewood.

How does it all come together?

This model features cream ABS body binding and is fitted with a solid Figured Ebony pickguard, a feature found on only a handful of select Faith guitars. Beautiful Macassan figured Ebony is used for the Fingerboard, Bridge and Headplate. 

The Electronics:

This Nexus Neptune is equipped with a Fishman Presys 2 preamp system and an undersaddle piezo pickup strip. This elegant solution is super easy to use, with an easy to read built-in tuner, 2 Band EQ contour control, phase switch (to control any feedback on stage), and a volume knob. The output jack is part of the battery box panel at the base of the guitar.

The Gigbag:

Your Faith Nexus guitar is supplied complete with a padded gigbag with handles, backstraps and an accessory pocket. And, when your gig schedule demands it, you can upgrade to a hardcase for even more protection too.
