The Importance of Body Shape

The Venus body shape has become a global benchmark for acoustic guitars that balance comfort with tonal authority. With a 15 inch lower bout and a shallower body depth, the Venus is comfortable to play for extended sessions while still delivering impressive projection and fullness.

This versatile shape works equally well for strumming, fingerstyle, and live performance, making it a true all rounder.

Tonewoods And Tonal Character

The top, back and sides are crafted from solid Indonesian mahogany and finished with a translucent black stain. This treatment deepens the visual character of the wood while allowing the natural golden and amber tones of mahogany to remain visible beneath the surface.

Using mahogany throughout the body creates a consistent and linear tonal response, producing warm mids, controlled bass, and a smooth high end. This is a guitar that thrives when played hard and rewards dynamic, expressive playing.

Design And Appointments

For 2026, the Nexus Venus Thru Black features elegant black and white ABS binding, adding definition to the body contours. A solid figured ebony pickguard enhances the premium aesthetic, while Macassan ebony is used for the fingerboard, bridge, and headplate to ensure durability, smooth playability, and excellent tonal transfer.

The high gloss lacquer finish not only protects the instrument but also adds depth and richness to the overall appearance.

Electronics

This Nexus Venus is fitted with the Fishman Presys 2 preamp system and an undersaddle piezo pickup. Simple and intuitive to use, the system includes a clear built in tuner, two band EQ contour control, a phase switch to manage on stage feedback, and a master volume control.

The output jack is integrated into the battery box at the base of the guitar for a clean and practical setup.

Included Gigbag

Your Faith Nexus Venus Thru Black is supplied complete with a padded gigbag featuring carry handles, backpack straps, and an accessory pocket. For players who need additional protection while touring or travelling, a hardcase upgrade is available.
