Faith FPNECK Nexus Neptune Electro Copper Black
Model Overview
This Faith Neptune model is based upon Patrick James Eggle’s highly acclaimed ‘Saluda’ shape.
A Baby-Jumbo size with a 16″ lower bout, the Neptune is the perfect model for those seeking acoustic power without the physical bulk of a full-sized Jumbo.
Faith Nexus Series are a collection of beautiful acoustic, gloss-finished guitars using all-solid mahogany bodies and tops. The all-mahogany construction creates a guitar that loves to be played hard and offers a distinctive tonal character with an emphasis on the mid-range.
In keeping with our popular Naked series, Nexus series guitars are also free of unnecessary cosmetic flourishes, instead relying on the tonewood’s natural variations, and the hand-applied Copper Black stain to add visual appeal. And what an appeal there is! Although there is still a certain stripped back look, the addition of a carefully applied high gloss lacquer not only highlights the mahogany’s natural beauty, but also adds a layer of physical protection that ensures your Nexus will shine for years to come.
Precision black tuners, black nuts and saddles, and genuine ebony fingerboards, bridges and bridge pins complete the Nexus look, and accentuate their already rich and dark visual palette.
This model is fitted with a Fishman Sonitone preamp and pickup system, the controls for which are mounted discreetly just inside the soundhole.
All Nexus guitars are now supplied with a padded Faith Gigbag.
Fishman Pre-Amp / Pickup
This Faith Guitar is fitted with a discreet Fishman Sonitone preamp system which features a volume and tone control mounted to the underside of the inside of the soundhole. The sonicore piezo strip is mounted under the saddle. The battery is located in a special bag affixed inside the guitar attached to the neck-block. The output jack is combined with the strap button at the base of the guitar.
