Violet Master’s Choice
The Violet Master’s Choice does not compromise on sound or workmanship. The soundboard of the instrument is made from carefully selected Sitka spruce, whose excellent acoustic properties are further enhanced by our innovative individual voicing process. The back and sides are made from African mahogany. This combination gives the guitar a perfectly balanced sound with clear highs, warm bass and long-lasting sustain. In addition to a number of dark decorative details, the beautiful natural appearance of the instrument is further enhanced by our Open-Pore Finish.
The Violet Master’s Choice is fitted with the LR Baggs Stagepro Element system, which features a side-mounted preamp with a tuner.
Choose the ultimate protection
Ensuring the safety of your Furch has never been easier. For maximum protection during transport and storage, we highly recommend the formidable Hiscox hard shell case, featuring an impact-resistant ABS outer shell and plush polyurethane padding on the interior. Alternatively, opt for the premium Furch gigbag with reinforced walls, providing versatile carrying options over the shoulder, by hand, or as a backpack.
The Hiscox hard shell case is available for the suggested retail price of €282, while the premium Furch gigbag is priced at €97. Choose the optimal defense for your Furch and elevate your guitar protection game!
Discover Your True Sound With Furch’s Voicing Process:
Furch’s unique voicing process fine-tunes each soundboard to perfection, resulting in guitars that deliver crystal-clear, harmonically rich tones. This precise adjustment ensures a balanced and dynamic sound across the entire tonal range, allowing your music to truly come alive.
Make Every Note Shine With Furch’s Resonance Enhancing Finish:
Every Furch guitar features our uniquely developed ultra-thin lacquer that not only protects, but also enhances your instrument’s natural resonance, creating a richer, fuller sound that brings out the true character of each note. Additionally, it highlights the wood’s natural beauty, ensuring your Furch guitar is as visually stunning as it sounds.
All grown-up
Like all our other models, the Violet Master’s Choice is made exclusively from solid wood. The soundboard comes from carefully selected Sitka spruce and the back and sides are made from African mahogany. This combination makes the Violet Master’s Choice a superbly tuned instrument with a long sustain.
Built to Play, Built to Last With Furch’s CNR System®
The Furch CNR System® neck design offers unmatched stability and precision. With a dual-action truss rod encased in a rigid carbon structure, it allows for smooth and fine adjustments, ensuring optimal playability and a setup that lasts, so your guitar always performs at its best.
- A fully adjustable dual-action truss rod for highly precise adjustment of the neck bow in both the convex and concave directions.
- A highly rigid carbon casing that maintains the neck in the set position over a period much longer than is the case with standard neck joint designs and, at the same time, facilitates a gradual bow in the neck, a factor of essential importance for playability.
- A casting made of special alloy located inside the neck heel that ensures a stable position of the neck and its angle vis-à-vis the body.
Contrasting black details
The spruce soundboard of the Violet Master’s Choice is decorated with binding, pickguard and an annular rosette in a contrasting black design.
Excellent playability
The ebony fingerboard of the guitar is equipped with special shortened frets which deliberately do not extend to the edge of the fingerboard. This prevents them from protruding due to fretboard shrinkage at lower humidity. The resulting area contains a flexible ebony-colored filler, which can perfectly absorb any changes.
LR Baggs Stagepro Element pickup
The Violet Master’s Choice comes with LR Baggs Stagepro Element, which is an upgraded version of the LR Baggs Element Active System – Volume Tone Control. The additional features of the Stagepro Element include a side-mounted preamp with a three-band equalizer and phase inversion as well as a sensitive onboard tuner. With a clean classy look, the Stagepro Element pickup system provides easy battery access and includes Garrett Null notch filter that delivers a warm pristine sound even under the most challenging conditions.
