Faith Guitars Blood Moon Series - Venus Pickup
Blood Moon Venus
One of Faith's most iconic model, the Blood Moon guitar in a beautiful red figuring gloss finish. The Blood Moon series uses some of the best figured Javanese Trembesi for the top, back and sides.
The solid Trembesi guitar reacts similarly to Hawaiian Koa, with warmth balance over the guitar while still having a rosewood-eque touch at the top end.
Voted the UK's Best Acoustic Guitar in 2016
The exclusive 'Blood Moon' burst finish and solid flamed maple binding serves to enhance its stunning appearance further.
Each Blood Moon is made by hand and every guitar will have its own distinct figuring: from the selection of trembesi, direction of grain used (some with straight, pronounced verticle grains; some with horizontal 'flaming'; and even some with a combination of the two). Regardless of the individuality each Blood Moon, the Faith makers ensure that the tone will be wonderful, and the appearance to be truly unique.
Patrick James Eggle's iconic Venus shape that brought Faith Guitars to the consciousness of so many players over the years. Combining a slightly slimmer body alike the OM or Auditorium body and a 15" lower bout makes the Venus an excellent all-rounder. Comparing to the Neptune body shape with a certain focus on low end strength, the Venus has balanced frequencies with a little extra boost in the mids to produce a clear, sweet voice. Great for finger-style guitar players seeking emphasis on clarity in the mids, without an overpowering low-end.
