Faith Nexus models are a stunning collection of all-solid acoustic guitars, designed to carefully bridge the gap between the ever-popular, stripped-back Naked series and our premium PRO and LEGACY models.
You’ll discover a wealth of visual and tonal appeal in the Nexus lineup, as they’re crafted from all-mahogany or all-trembesi tonewoods and love to be played hard, offering a distinctive tonal character with an emphasis on the mid-range.
Rated 5.0 out of 5
The importance of body shape
The Venus has become a guitar industry reference point around the world as a guitar 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?
The top, back and sides of the Nexus Venus Copper Black are solid Indonesian Mahogany, stained with a special, black colour treatment. This colouration serves to deepen the inherent visual character of Mahogany allowing nature’s work to be fully appreciated, complementing, and combining with some of the natural golden and amber mahogany tones. This combination results in the ‘copper’ almost metallic colours glimpsed when the light catches some instruments just right.
How does it all come together?
All-Mahogany guitars have been an essential part of a guitarists tonal palette for a long time now. By using the same tonewood for the whole body, the instrument delivers a reliably linear tone and overall an instrument that loves to be played and strummed hard.
The Electronics.
This Nexus Venus 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 new Faith Nexus will be supplied complete with a padded gigbag with handles, backstraps and an accessory pocket. And, when the gig bookings start to stack up, you can upgrade to a hardcase for even better on-the-road protection.
