The Vintage Forty Five LT a is our special 45th anniversary limited edition, inspired by the timeless elegance of the Vintage Series and enhanced with exclusive anniversary appointments in premium materials such as abalone, solid Hawaiian koa, and solid padauk. Built with an individually voiced AAA-grade Alpine spruce soundboard and an individually voiced Honduran rosewood back, it delivers exceptional responsiveness, refined tonal balance, and rich harmonic complexity. The guitar is finished in our resonance-enhancing Full-Pore Vintage Finish, featuring a hand-brushed appearance inspired by the traditional patina of instruments from the early 20th century. Its distinctive visual character is further elevated by exclusive anniversary inlays crafted from carefully selected solid padauk, solid koa, and white pearl, featured across the fretboard, headstock, and bridge.

Produced in a strictly limited run of only 45 instruments worldwide across the available Dreadnought and Orchestra Model body shapes, the Vintage Forty Five LT a combines refined aesthetics with a range of proprietary Furch technologies designed to maximize acoustic performance, playing comfort, and long-term reliability. The individually voiced soundboard and back work together with the resonance-enhancing finish to help the instrument reach its full tonal potential, while preserving the natural beauty of the selected tonewoods. Long-term neck stability and consistent playability are ensured by the CNR System® Active neck design, which automatically compensates for humidity-induced movement and enables precise string action adjustment. Gotoh SE700 Gold Patina machine heads complete the vintage-inspired appearance of an instrument created to celebrate four and a half decades of continuous innovation, craftsmanship, and acoustic development.

A Heritage-Inspired Headstock

The ebony headstock overlay features a special anniversary design inspired by Furch’s rich history. It combines the Furch Heritage logo, based on our historic logo designs, with an exclusive inlay made from solid koa, solid padauk, and white pearl. The number 45 completes the design as a clear tribute to this milestone year.

Luxurious Bridge Detailing

The ebony bridge features an exclusive anniversary inlay crafted from solid koa, solid padauk, and white pearl. Matching the inlays on the headstock and fretboard, this refined detail helps unify the instrument’s commemorative and luxurious visual identity.

Anniversary Fretboard Inlay

The ebony fretboard is adorned with exclusive anniversary position markers crafted from solid koa, solid padauk, and white pearl. Echoing the design of the headstock inlay, they create a distinctive visual identity that extends gracefully along the entire neck.

The Beauty of Honduran Rosewood

The back and sides are crafted from Honduran rosewood, a rare tonewood admired for its striking figure, rich harmonic complexity, and powerful, balanced voice. To bring out its full acoustic potential, the back plate is individually voiced using Furch’s proprietary process, a treatment typically reserved only for top soundboards. This allows the exceptional tonal character of the Honduran rosewood to be realized with even greater depth and responsiveness.

Built to Play, Engineered to Last With Furch CNR System® Active 

 

The Furch CNR System® Active neck design takes our original CNR System® to the next level, offering unparalleled stability and precision for players who demand consistent performance. This innovative design adapts seamlessly to changes in humidity while maintaining perfect playability, ensuring your guitar feels and plays the way you want it to—every time you pick it up. Featuring a dual-action truss rod encased in a rigid carbon structure, the system is further enhanced by a solid-wood expansion element that automatically adjusts the neck angle to maintain consistent string action over time. It minimizes the need for costly, time-consuming neck resets and eliminates maintenance concerns, giving you the freedom to adjust your setup quickly and easily and allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the joy of playing—because that’s what truly matters.

Discover Your Sound With Individual Soundboard Voicing

Our unique voicing process fine-tunes each top and back soundboard to perfection, resulting in guitars that consistently deliver crystal-clear, harmonically rich tone. 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 UV-polymerized lacquer, which protects the instrument while enhancing its natural resonance for a richer, fuller sound. On the Vintage Forty Five LT a, the Full-Pore Vintage Finish adds a finely hand-brushed appearance reminiscent of the patina found on traditional guitars from the early 20th century, thanks to our proprietary final buffing process. This distinctive surface treatment gives the instrument an authentic, time-honored character while preserving its acoustic responsiveness.
