Forch Guitars was founded in 1981 by bluegrass musicians in the former Czechoslovakia! This is a popular brand used by many renowned artists, including Okazaki Michinori, Nakagawa Isato, Kishibe Masaaki, and UK (MOROHA)! As one of Europe's leading brands, Forch is loved primarily by fingerstyle guitarists. With their meticulous construction, beautiful finish, refined sound, and smooth playing feel, there's a reason why they are used by so many musicians. One of its noteworthy specifications is Forch's patented "CNR (Composite Neck Reinforcement)" system. In pursuit of the most stable neck structure possible, the truss rod, inserted into the carbon pipe, is firmly held in place by a special light alloy bracket that does not affect string vibration. This bracket is then firmly connected to the body, successfully improving the truss rod's resistance to neck deformation caused by string tension or humidity by 90%. Additionally, the dovetail groove is precisely machined to the same shape as the neck heel, greatly enhancing the stability of the neck joint. These features make this guitar a guitar we can recommend with confidence, as one that will last for many years to come. This model, the Yellow Deluxe Gc-SR, is based on the Yellow Gc-SR, a representative model from the Yellow series (formerly the 23 series), which is the core of Forch guitars, and is a deluxe model that incorporates popular options from the custom-order Rainbow series in various places. Its most distinctive feature is the "Bevel Duo" design, which features contours in two areas: the elbow and chest. This contouring makes the guitar comfortable to hold even during extended playing sessions, and also gives it a three-dimensional, beautiful appearance. The position marks are liner side position marks, the binding is black cell, and the fingerboard and veneer have white contrast lines, so the fine details are different from the regular Yellow series, giving it a more chic and sophisticated impression. The top is made of AAA grade Sitka spruce, and the back and sides are made of AA grade Indian rosewood. The combination of the auditorium body with excellent volume balance and deep bass and the spruce top with clear, fast attack produces an extremely versatile sound that can be used in a wide range of genres. The separation between each note is excellent, making this a great choice for players who want to bring out the bass lines and melody. The nut width is wide at 45mm, but the outstanding playability provided by the thin neck shape has earned it support from many players. Also, although it's a very minor difference, the bridge pins are made of ebony, the same material as the Rainbow series, which gives the guitar a warmer, woodier sound than the standard Yellow series. It's nice to see attention to detail like this. It features a double contour and minor specification changes, but we believe it's priced at a very reasonable price!! This model is rarely available in Japan, so if you're interested, be sure to try it out as soon as possible!-SPEC- Top: AAA Sitka Spruce Back and Sides: AA Indian Rosewood Neck: Mahogany Bracing: Scalloped X Bracing Nut Width: 45mm Fingerboard: Ebony Bridge: Ebony Scale Length: 650mm Tuner: GOTOH 510 Ebony Button Case：Hiscox Furch Original Hard Case Show more
