"A clean, bright, useable 12-string. Very playable, with an even tone and good intonation. I have found its sound to be a little too brittle for recording though. The onboard tuner is both accurate and very useful. NB. I only use the onboard mic system for augmenting the sound during recording."

"What a lovely guitar. I've played guitar for 40 + years and own some top end instruments such as Martins, and even compared to those this guitar is remarkably good. Build quality is excellent, the action and tone are great too. The only other 12 strings I've played that have been this good have been way up the Taylor range, so 2 or 3x the price. Played the Faith at a small house gig the day after getting it and everyone was really impressed with the tone. "

"Lovely!
Very disappointed that several of the strings were corroded close to the bridge"

"This is a truly beautiful musical instrument. Aesthetically glorious, beautifully set up (thanks Lee!) and with its well thought through neck profile it's very easy to play- as easy as any of my six strings in fact. The smaller body size helps to make the 12 string sound easily controllable. Amplified through my Boss singer amp it sounds glorious. This is an instrument that is full of personality and beauty, Some instruments that you own you find a name for very quickly. This guitar is one of those."

"Great guitar! My Venus 12-String is beautifully made with lovely wood and high quality fittings. It does have a relatively small body compared to a full-size "dreadnought" style but, allowing for this, it has great acoustic sound. The neck, not surprisingly for a 12-string, feels "full" in the hand, but not unpleasantly so, and I can happily play fairly complex finger-picked parts on this guitar. The installed pickup system is more than good enough for my needs and the built-in tuner is simple but very helpful for tweaking the tuning on-the-go (particularly good for a 12-string). The case is well-made too. My only reservation is that this guitar really is a little bit neck-heavy: the Faith headstock looks good but is relatively large with quite a bit of extra wood beyond the tuning machines and on a 12-string, with six tuners per side, this makes for rather a lot of mass at the far end of the neck compared to the weight of the body. It doesn't reduce my enjoyment of the guitar but I'm aware of it, particularly when standing with the guitar on a strap. The simple solution of using a strap with a rough suede backing adds a bit of friction and stops the strap sliding across my shoulder, preventing the headstock from heading floorwards! I spent quite some time looking at a number of electroacoustic 12-string guitars before I settled on a purchase and I have no regrets about buying the FV12TB. I am genuinely very happy with this instrument! (I was all set to buy a brand new one when I stumbled across a virtually unused second-hand instrument for a price that was too good to miss!)"

"I love it. I've never enjoyed playing a 12 string til this one. Brilliant sound and feel. Sounds awesome amplified. Really well built. The luthier who set it up for me was impressed too, so that's good enough for me."

"Beautiful tone with a rounded mellow bottom end. Seems to be perfectly balanced when I support the guitar with one finger under the area of the forward strap peg. I like the action which is low and it seems easy to play with a comfortable feel to the neck/fret board. Lovely affordable guitar with a great finish, i look forward to playing it live in the months ahead."

"Although I still have yet to set the guitar up/have it set up... I'm impressed with build, the look pleased with the initial sound, very big & bright. Once the action is taken down I look forward to many happy times strummin on the Faith."

"beautiful guitar, well made and even factory fresh sounds very good indeed. Set up is spot on, low action - comfortable to play and buzz free even with heavy playing. Electronics superb, tuner is fast and accurate. Finally - essential for a 12 - intonation is excellent!"

"I have had an Aria 12 string guitar since 1979 but this is a considerable improvement. It has a very easy action and a warm tone. I was put off slightly at first sight by the absence of inlays and shiny lacquer but appearance is not everything is it?"
Antony

"Only purchased yesterday, early days so still finding touch. Very good quality and easier to play than other 12 strings I've played. Excellent tone and a good volume even though not as big a body as a dreadnought. "

"Classy workmanship. Small details like the wooden pins and tuner heads add a classy feel. Sound: yes great. I've heard louder 12-strings but very well balanced. Only critic: the tuner is hard to decipher, especially under stage condition/dim lightnin"

"The guitar just gets better ~ Mr Eggle has designed a pure gem in the Trembesi 12 String. The tone is clear, trebles clear and full of sustain, bass resonant, mid range tone warm. Good looking, joy to play, get it set up right you won't put it down."
