FURCH Blue Deluxe Gc-SW EAS-VTC Acoustic/Electric
The Blue Deluxe SW is made from carefully selected tonewoods that produce clear and open tones, finely balanced across the entire tonal spectrum. The soundboard features Sitka spruce, the back and sides are from black walnut. Both plates are complemented by the ergonomic Bevel Duo feature, which provides maximum comfort even during prolonged play. The beautiful natural appearance of the Blue Deluxe SW is underscored by open-pore finish and a host of delicate dark-colored appointments, such as double ring rosette with black walnut inlay, black body binding and black pickguard.
Unique Voicing Process
The premium nature of the Blue Deluxe SW is underscored by the fact that the soundboard is individually tuned using the voicing process, which enhances the instrument’s tonal properties to the highest level. Thanks to that, the Blue Deluxe SW has a crystalline clear, harmonically rich, balanced, and highly dynamic sound across the entire tonal spectrum.
Open-Pore Finish
The instrument features Open-Pore Finish, a special thin finish that promotes the natural sonic qualities of tonewoods and provides an excellent level of surface protection.
Bevel Duo for Extra Comfort
The black Bevel Duo ergonomic feature, comprised of two bevels – one in front, at the forearm and one in the rear, at the rib position, provides a significant increase in player comfort and also enhances the exclusive appearance of the instrument. We use modern 3D printing technology during its creation which allows us to manfacture it with maximum precision.
Furch CNR System® Neck Design
A high precision, dual-action truss rod maintains neck stability and allows for fine adjustment of the neck relief, bilaterally. The truss rod is housed in a highly rigid carbon casing which enables a very smooth and controlled neck relief, ensuring the best playability and enduring optimal setup.
Elegant Dark Appointments
The soundboard of the Blue Deluxe SW is adorned by a rosette featuring a double ring with a black walnut inlay. Black color was also used on body binding and pickguard.
Pearl Position Markers
The ebony fingerboard is adorned with pearl front dot and side linear position markers that improve fingerboard orientation and enhance the guitar’s stylish appearance.
