About This Guitar

The Faith Mercury guitar is a short-scale parlor model that has big sound in a small body and a neck that joins the body at the 12th fret. The Classic Burst finish uses the combination of Red Cedar and Mahogany. Classic Burst models sound as rich and warm as they look. Using a three-tone burst finish, based on deep browns, reds and amber, this finish is intentionally understated. The tonal character will have emphasis on the lower-midrange with a beautifully warm, vocal nature. The Classic Burst models are bound with Solid Macassan Ebony, and use the same high quality timber for the fingerboards, headplates, heelplates, bridges and bridge pins. Faith Classic Burst guitars are complete with a Faith Hardcase.
