Description
Forch Guitars was founded in 1981 by bluegrass musicians in the former Czechoslovakia!
This is a popular brand used by many renowned artists, including Okazaki Michinori, Nakagawa Isato, Kishibe Masaaki, and UK (MOROHA)!
As one of Europe's leading brands, Forch is loved primarily by fingerstyle guitarists. With their meticulous construction, beautiful finish, refined sound, and smooth playing feel, there's a reason why they are used by so many musicians.
One of its noteworthy specifications is Forch's patented "CNR (Composite Neck Reinforcement)" system. In pursuit of the most stable neck structure possible, the truss rod, inserted into the carbon pipe, is firmly held in place by a special light alloy bracket that does not affect string vibration. This bracket is then firmly connected to the body, successfully improving the truss rod's resistance to neck deformation caused by string tension or humidity by 90%. Additionally, the dovetail groove is precisely machined to the same shape as the neck heel, greatly enhancing the stability of the neck joint. These features make this guitar a guitar we can recommend with confidence, as one that will last for many years to come.
This "Rainbow Gc-ER" is an original custom model packed with luxurious options that were carefully selected by our staff from tens of thousands of possible combinations of specifications.
The top is Englemann spruce, the back and sides are Master Grade Indian rosewood, and the mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard are a popular combination.
The body shape is the popular Grand Auditorium size. With its deep lows, well-balanced mid- and high-range frequencies, and nuanced response that instantly responds to even the lightest touch, it's suitable for a variety of styles, from percussive playing to ballads, making it a favorite among fingerstyle guitarists.
The Englemann spruce used for the top is characterized by its beautiful, fine, pure white grain and bright, soft sound.It also responds well to light picking, making it an ideal top material for fingerstyle playing.
The combination of this instrument and high-quality Indian rosewood creates a wide, deep sound that is endlessly beautiful, allowing the player to faithfully incorporate their delicate breathing into the music. The rich overtones and crisp bass make you want to play forever.
We selected Red Heart for the binding, which creates a beautiful contrast with the pure white Engelmann spruce top!
This is a fantastic guitar that has been carefully crafted in both sound and looks, so don't miss this opportunity!
