Furch Violet GC-SM

The all-solid Furch that proves a cutaway and open-pore finish are no compromise

All-solid wood for less than €1,200 — at Furch, that's not an exception, but a promise. The Violet GC-SM is built for guitarists who want to play seriously without spending a fortune. The Grand Auditorium body with cutaway gives you access to the high frets, while the open-pore finish allows the wood to resonate freely from the first note.

The Solid Sitka Spruce top delivers a clear, direct tone with enough attack for strummers and enough nuance for fingerpickers. The African Mahogany back and sides add warmth and provide a balanced midrange that sounds great whether you're strumming chords or picking melodies. The combination of spruce and mahogany is a classic for a reason: it just works.

The African Mahogany neck with Ebony fretboard and Furch's Soft-V profile is comfortable for most hand sizes and plays smoothly across the full 650 mm scale length. The Ebony bridge with fully compensated TUSQ saddle ensures stable intonation. No pickup on board, but the acoustic projection of this guitar makes you prefer to play it unamplified.

The Furch Violet GC-SM is an honest, all-solid instrument that you'll want to pick up immediately.
