Description

~A meticulously crafted original custom model featuring a wealth of luxurious options has arrived~

Furch Guitars was founded in 1981 by bluegrass musicians in what was then Czechoslovakia!
This is a trending brand used by a stellar lineup of artists including Rintaro Okazaki, Isato Nakagawa, Masaaki Kishibe, and UK (MOROHA)!

Furch, one of Europe's leading brands, is beloved primarily by fingerstyle guitarists. Its meticulous craftsmanship, beautiful finish, refined sound, and smooth playability make it a truly exceptional guitar, with plenty of reasons why it's used by so many musicians.


This "Rainbow Gc-LE" is an original custom model packed with luxurious options, carefully selected by our staff from tens of thousands of possible combinations of specifications.
The top is made of master-grade sinker redwood, and the sides and back are made of master-grade padauk. This custom model is full of personality, making the most of the highest-grade, rare woods and their impressive grain and color.

With its grand auditorium body, deep bass, well-defined mid-to-high frequencies, and nuanced response that reacts instantly even to a light touch, this guitar boasts exceptional balance for fingerstyle playing and is suitable for a wide range of styles, from percussive playing to ballads.
The top wood, sinker redwood, is an extremely rare material, salvaged from lakes and rivers that have been submerged for centuries. The tannins in the wood react with iron in the water, resulting in this unique reddish-brown color. The sound is characterized by warm, rich overtones and is said to be similar to cedar, but it has a more intense attack and dynamic range, giving it the potential to handle powerful playing.
The padauk wood used for the sides and back is characterized by its clear attack and extended mid-to-high frequencies. Above all, it is a rare material whose striking deep crimson color is its greatest appeal.
The combination of sinker redwood and padauk produces a very playable sound with a smooth sustain, a light yet punchy attack, and a well-balanced range. It's suitable for fingerstyle playing, as well as for band performances and solo acoustic sets.

In terms of appearance, we've created a luxurious look that highlights the unique characteristics of the wood while satisfying the desire of ownership.
The binding and rosette are made of Hawaiian koa, which complements the top and back colors well. The fingerboard inlays feature tropical flower inlays made of beautiful mother-of-pearl, adding a subtle touch of luxury.
We've also incorporated Furch's highly popular double contour option, which makes it comfortable even during long playing sessions and further enhances the beauty of the Hawaiian koa binding.
Even in the finer details, it boasts luxurious specifications such as liner position markers on the side of the fretboard and Cosmo Black Gotoh tuners, making it truly a full-spec instrument.
This is a fantastic guitar with meticulous attention to both sound and looks, so please consider it!


◆CNR System Active (Composite Neck Reinforcement System)◆
This model is equipped with Furch's proprietary "CNR System Active (Composite Neck Reinforcement System)".
This is an innovative neck design that updates the existing CNR neck system. Its most notable feature is the ability to adjust the neck angle using a string height adjustment bolt located on the neck block, allowing for string height adjustments without having to file down the saddle.
Furthermore, the improved neck rigidity and stability compared to the previous system allow for longer-term playability and stability.

*To safely adjust the neck angle using this bolt, specialized tools and the skills of a qualified technician are required. Please consult with the acoustic floor staff at Ikebe Musical Instruments Store.
