VOTED THE UK'S BEST ACOUSTIC GUITAR 2014

This Faith Neptune model is based upon Patrick James Eggle's highly acclaimed 'Saluda' shape.

A Baby-Jumbo size with a 16" lower bout, the Neptune is the perfect model for those seeking acoustic power without the physical bulk of a full-sized Jumbo

Faith All-Mahogany models deliver a clear, linear tone which is very sweet and woody with plenty of midrange.

Using Mahogany for both the top and body of a guitar makes for a very “friendly” instrument that responds well to hard picking, strumming and finger-style techniques alike. Further to this, the sound produced is unburdened by overly audible overtones and harmonics, so they perform brilliantly when recording.

 

Fishman Pre-Amp / Pickup

This Faith Guitar is fitted with the refined, low-profile Fishman INK3 preamp system with the Sonicore piezo pickup located under the saddle. The preamp features a chromatic tuner, 3 band EQ and volume control. The output jack is located at the base of the guitar as part of the ingenious, easy-access battery compartment.

"Looks very good, and feels good as well when I'm playing the guitar. From the build quality up to the sound that it produces, hard earned money well spent for this guitar. Comes with a beautiful and sturdy hard case as well."

"Great guitar, lovely warm tone and set up perfectly. After a few teething issues (odd vibration), which required it to be returned to be checked, it is now perfect! Brilliant service from Anderton's in Guildford. Many thanks"

"Good day. I only learned about Faith guitars last month, August 2019. I was so blown away by the finishes, the technicalities of the design and the passion to build guitars at Faith....that I decided to buy one. I was deciding between the Faith naked neptune and All Mahogany neptune. I did go for the Mahogany in the end. Best sounding guitar I ever own and play. Please continue to make them. I truly enjoy my guitar. Great work by Faith Guitars."

"Beautiful woody tone and well setup from the factory.
The hi gloss finish is excellent and the Grover tuners are very smooth and easy to operate.
The onboard Fishman electrics are great with the added bonus of the tuner, which I suppose is standard these days.
All in all very pleased with the guitar."

"As a professional of many years I wanted a guitar with volume unplugged and a warm sound. I'm still trying to get the perfect sound whilst amplified. I cover many styles and techniques in my working life so getting the perfect sound matters.
Other top name brands of a similar price just didn't cut it. Just wish you made a feedback buster"
