Faith FKVBK Naked Venus Electro Cutaway Acoustic Guitar - Black

With its solid Indonesian Mahogany back and sides topped by a solid Engelmann Spruce top, the Faith Venus Naked Black Electro Cutaway Acoustic Guitar is a highly resonant and richly toned instrument which, when combined with its Venus body shape, results in a playing experience that is second-to-none.

Faith’s “Venus” design has proven to be very popular amongst performers who require a balanced tone/playability/volume ratio. Inspired by classic OM or Auditorium body-shapes, Venus-shaped guitars feature a smaller lower-bout, slimmer depth and single cutaway. This combination results in a comfortable, easy-to-handle guitar that resonates well and still emits a big sound for its size - no matter how energetic your on-stage performance gets.

The Naked series of guitars is aptly named; the concept is a collection of guitars with minimal cosmetic dressing so the natural qualities of the tonewood are as unrestricted as possible. This ‘naked’ state allows the guitar to breathe more and resonate fully, resulting in a tonally-rich instrument that produces a sound of a quality far above the usual standards expected at this price level. The FKVBK satin-coated woods also wear a hand-rubbed ‘thru-black’ stain that soaks into the grain of the wood and lets its beauty glimpse through. This silky dark finish is matched with black fittings and hardware for a classy, sophisticated look.

The FKVBK is ideal for onstage performances of any size thanks to the inclusion of its Fishman Presys-T preamp system and Sonicore pickup. This brilliantly-designed little preamp features a contour EQ control, Volume control, Phase button and an integrated tuner. This great electro-acoustic come with gigbag included.
