The Venus Blood Moon is a beautiful instrument which features highly figured 'AAA' grade Solid Indonesian Trembesi on top, back and sides. This indigenous Indonesian timber has long been used by furniture makers for its stunning appearance, but Faith have been convinced of its tonal properties for a good while too. This guitar gives a harmonically powerful tone as striking to hear as to observe.
Not unlike Hawaiian Koa, a solid Trembesi instrument reacts in a similar way to Mahogany, delivering warmth and balance across the strings, while still having a little rosewood-eque sparkle at the top end. Featuring Macassan Ebony fingerboards, headplates, heelplates, bridges and bridge pins.
The exclusive 'Blood Moon' burst finish and solid flamed maple binding serves to enhance its stunning appearance further.
Comes with Faith hard case.
