Faith Eclipse Venus - The stunning sound and looks of Black Venus Faith Guitars is a new brand from Shropshire, England, overseen by Patrick James Egle, who has worked on guitars for many famous musicians. The original body shape of the "Venus" achieves the ideal balance between ease of holding when playing and rich volume. The top material is Engelmann spruce, which provides fast response, silky high frequencies, and deep sustain. The back and sides are made of mahogany, which produces a warm midrange and tight bass, adding a defined attack. In addition, the armrests and binding are made of figured maple, which combines beautiful grain and high rigidity, adding clear overtones and a luxurious accent to the jet-black gloss finish. The latest Fishman INK BODY preamp features a dual pickup system consisting of an under-saddle piezo with a clear core and a body sensor that captures the air and body resonance. The blend can be adjusted using the preamp at hand, allowing for a wide range of sound creation, so it can be used in a variety of situations, from solo singing where the deep resonance fills the space, to clear chord cutting and lead work that doesn't get drowned out in a band ensemble, to high-resolution studio work that combines line recording and microphone recording, and more. *The image is a sample.
