Rated 5.0 out of 5
The importance of body shape:
Based upon the scaled-down dimensions of our Baby-Jumbo, this Nomad Mini-Neptune is incredibly comfortable and easy to play, sitting perfectly whether on the knee or equipped with a strap. The Nomads are short scale acoustic guitars, with the neck joining the body at the 12th fret, designed to be the perfect travel companion.
Which tonewoods are used and why?
The top, back and sides of the Nomad Mini-Neptune are solid Indonesian Mahogany, stained with a light brown, walnut-coloured stain. This subtle colouration serves to deepen the visual character of Mahogany emphasising the natural grain patterns. Each Nomad has a simple satin finish that allows the wood to move without restriction, bearing your musical battle scars and festival reminders with pride.
How does it all come together?
By using solid mahogany for the whole body, this Nomad can resonate coherently delivering a plucky, feisty tone. In this mini-baby-jumbo guise, the overall volume will not be as loud as a full sized Neptune, but the mids cut through brilliantly. And when amplified, its smaller dimensions are undetectable. The fittings of the Nomad guitars – fingerboard, headplate, bridge, etc – are still made of solid Ebony. So even though the guitar may be physically lightweight, the Nomad is far from light on quality.
The Electronics:
This Nomad is equipped with a Fishman Presys 1 preamp system and an undersaddle piezo pickup strip. This elegant solution is super easy to use, with an easy-to-read built-in tuner, contour EQ control, phase switch (to control any feedback on stage), and a volume knob. The output is located at the base of the guitar, integrated with the strap button.
The Gigbag:
Your Faith Nomad guitar is supplied complete with a padded gigbag with handles, backstraps and an accessory pocket. It will even just about squeeze into most overhead lockers in airplanes too!
