Furch Blue Performance Gc-SW

The Blue Performance SW a is designed for players who need a high quality all solid acoustic guitar with strong stage performance, excellent playing comfort and a natural amplified tone. This Gc version has Furch’s Grand Auditorium body with cutaway, combining a versatile acoustic response with easy access to the upper frets.

The guitar features a solid Sitka spruce top and solid black walnut back and sides. The top is individually voiced by Furch to get the best possible resonance and response from the instrument, while the black walnut body adds a clear, balanced tone with defined lows, transparent mids and musical highs.

For live use, the Blue Performance SW a comes equipped with the LR Baggs Stagepro Element pickup system, including a side mounted preamp with tuner, three band EQ and phase control. It also features Furch’s Bevel Duo, with ergonomic bevels on both the top and back of the body for added comfort during longer playing sessions.
