Faith Mars Electro Acoustic, Classic Burst

Full Description

Booming acoustics

The Faith Mars features a classic drop-shoulder dreadnought body, which offers superb volume and projection while maintaining tonal balance. With its mixture of solid timber, wider nut, twelfth fret join, and drop-shoulder design, the Mars offers a superb and pleasing response to a lighter touch and various fingerpicking techniques. Its bigger body has more room for sound to, providing the player with a rich, full-bodied acoustic voice. The bold and commanding dreadnought body offers a comfortable playing experience for those more comfortable with bigger bodied guitars whilst its drop-shoulder design provides added comfort and easier playability.

Sculpted for perfection

This model features a solid red cedar top that is well-respected for its stunning response to a lighter touch, perfect for the fingerpicking enthusiast. The material produces a sweet, dark, and complex tone with excellent bass response and rich harmonics. Attached is solid mahogany back and sides, which add warmth and resonance, alongside plenty of emphasis to the bass and trebles, providing the player with a rich, full-bodied sound that is ideal for folk, country, and much more. The overall tone adds emphasis on the lower-mids with a wonderfully warm vocal nature.

Stunning tonewoods

With a neck constructed from mahogany, the player receives a quick and dynamic response with plenty of warmth and resonance. Its nature allows it to respond superbly to numerous playing styles and techniques with ease, perfect for getting creative and unleashing true potential. In addition, the neck features Patrick James Eggle's bolt-on design for added strength and durability. The neck has been topped with a Macassan figured ebony fingerboard that adds ringing sustain, plenty of bite and a bright sizzle to the guitar's overall tone. For added aesthetic appeal, the fingerboard also features Faith's majestic 'F' logo placed on the 12th fret and inlaid in mother of pearl for an elegant look.

Ready for stage and studio

In order to further enhance this model, it comes equipped with a discreet Fishman Sonitone preamp that is subtly mounted within the sound hole, allowing you to tweak your sound for live and rehearsal settings. In addition, the preamp is versatile and responsive which allows it to project each stunning nuance purely and beautifully. The sound hole mounted preamp offers volume and tone control to shape the amplified sound by simply plugging in to an amplifier or PA system, perfect for the performing musician.
