Description

Chosen for our stock by one of Scotland’s foremost luthiers upon a recent visit this model has become one of our favourite guitars:  the compact body shape feels great and you really hear the quality of the solid Sitka spruce top ringing when you brush the strings.
Made from 100% solid tonewood – and with a simple and subtle natural finish this guitar is superbly understated.  All the fancy cosmetics and non-essential dressing has been stripped away, leaving the guitars in their natural wood finish the tonewood is unrestricted in its resonant movement, so the tone delivered is far beyond what is expected for an instrument at this price level.
You really need to play this instrument to fully appreciate it.

Faith guitars are designed by Patrick James Eggle explains:
I think of the Naked models as having the very soul of the guitar exposed for all to hear and experience. Each instrument is uncomplicated and unadorned with unnecessary cosmetics, and as such they fall within the reach of musicians of every level. Each instrument uses high quality, solid tonewoods, with a simple satin finish that lets the guitar breathe and move with no restriction.

The result is an incredibly responsive guitar that longs to be played.
