Designed in the UK by master luthier Patrick James Eggle - Faith Guitars offer a wide selection of stylish shapes and finishes, all at extremely reasonable prices. With all models being made from finely selected solid timbers (no laminates!) and featuring optional Shadow electronics, the Faith sound is sure to satisfy the most ruthless of tone-hounds! If that wasn't enough, all Faith guitars (except the Naked & Nexus Series) come complete with a Deluxe Faith hard case...
New for 2017, the Neptune Blood Moon is a beautiful instrument which uses only the finest, highly figured Javanese Trembesi for the 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.
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.
The exclusive 'Blood Moon' burst finish and solid flamed maple binding serves to enhance its stunning appearance further.
This Faith Neptune model is based upon Patrick James Eggle's highly acclaimed 'Saluda' shape.
A Baby-Jumbo size with a 16 inch lower bout, the Neptune is the perfect model for those seeking acoustic power without the physical bulk of a full-sized Jumbo.
