Model Overview

Based upon the Patrick James Eggle 'Kanuga' model, this Mars is a classic drop-shoulder dreadnought design. Tonally a great all-rounder, the Mars attracts the player with an eye and ear for tradition. 

The Spruce top and Mahogany body of each of the Faith Naked instruments is 100% solid tonewood – in keeping with all other Faith series. However, the cosmetics and non-essential dressing has been stripped away, leaving the guitars in their natural, Naked state. Satin finished all over, the tonewood is almost entirely unrestricted in its resonant movement, so the tone delivered is far beyond what is normally expected at this price level.

This model is fitted with a side-mounted preamp and undersaddle pickup. 

Fishman Pre-Amp / Pickup

This Faith Guitar is fitted with a Fishman Isys-T preamp (named Presys-T from 2019), and sonicore pickup. The output jack is combined with the strap button with a battery box fitted to the base of the guitar. The preamp features a Tuner, a contour button - choosing a flat EQ or a scooped EQ , and a phase button.

"It's the one of the best guitars I've played "

"I love this guitar, I went in looking for another model, and saw the Mars and played it, and I could not put it down, nor did I get the same feel or sound from the other more expensive famously known brand, it just could not compare to the Faith sound, feel, and quality!"

"I love the Faith Mars brand, and this guitar feels to me like a very solid middle-range instrument with beautiful life-lasting finish and Mahogany woods. The sound is fairly bright but not as intricate as my Blueridges. But it sounds great through an amp and I will use it as a reliable mid-range guitar for my gigs. LOVE the range- now want a blood moon Venus x"
