The Venus is the now iconic shape that brought Faith Guitars to the consciousness of so many players over the years. The combination of a 15" lower bout and a slimmer depth of bodylooks to classic OM or Auditorium body-shapes for inspiration, and makes the Venus the perfect compromise.
It is still big enough to deliver a big acoustic performance, yet remains small enough for the player to jump around on stage with no problem.
Faith Nexus models are a stunning collection of all-solid acoustic guitars, designed to carefully bridge the gap between the ever-popular, stripped-back Naked series and our premium PRO and LEGACY models.
You’ll discover a wealth of visual and tonal appeal in the Nexus lineup, as they’re crafted from all-mahogany or all-trembesi tonewoods and love to be played hard, offering a distinctive tonal character with an emphasis on the mid-range.
New for 2024, the Nexus Venus Solar Flare (FPVSF) model features an exclusive satin finish over the rich, sunburst-coloured top while the back and sides retain a deep, stained natural hue. This satin finish is soft and smooth to the touch, complementing its smooth and balanced tonal palette.
This model features ABS body binding - black with white purfling - and is fitted with a solid Figured Ebony pickguard, a feature found on only a handful of select Faith guitars.
Electronics are provided by Fishman, using a side-mounted Presys2 preamp system which features an in-built tuner too.
All Nexus guitars are now supplied with a padded Faith Gigbag.
