Vintage Pure EM a
The Vintage Pure EM a is an ideal choice for players who appreciate the timeless character of traditional guitar design. This model features an individually voiced Engelmann spruce top soundboard combined with African mahogany back and sides, delivering a bright, focused tone with strong midrange presence and excellent clarity. Its vintage-inspired character is reflected in a range of understated, period-correct appointments, including artificial tortoise binding and a black walnut rosette. A flat headstock with the Furch Heritage logo pays tribute to our historic designs and reinforces the authentic aesthetic of early 20th-century instruments. The overall look and feel are further enhanced by our UV-polymerized, resonance-enhancing Open-Pore Finish, which leaves the wood’s pores open for a natural, tactile experience and a clean, minimalist appearance. The Vintage Pure EM a is available in Dreadnought, Orchestra Model, and OOM body shapes.
Heritage logo
Vintage Series guitars feature the Furch Heritage logo on the headstock, a distinctive element introduced in 2026, our 45th anniversary year. Inspired by our historic headstock designs, the logo pays homage to our legacy while enhancing the traditional aesthetic of early 20th-century guitars.
Discover Your Sound With Individual Soundboard Voicing
Our unique voicing process fine-tunes each 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.
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.
Stylish appointments
The traditional look of the Vintage Pure EM a is underscored by double ring rosette with black walnut inlay and body binding made of artificial tortoise.
