Description
Description
Forch Guitars was founded in 1981 by bluegrass musicians in the former Czechoslovakia!
This is a popular brand currently used by a number of 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.
This instrument, the "Yellow Deluxe Gc-SR," is a custom model limited to 2025, based on the "Deluxe" series, which features a double contour and is one of the most popular models in Forch Guitar's classic Yellow (formerly 23 series) line.
As a special custom feature of this model, the body outbinding is made of Hawaiian Koa, which has deep grain and beautiful color, and the rosette in the sound hole, which is the face of the guitar, is a luxurious specification that layers glittering abalone with Hawaiian Koa, giving it a luxurious look that is different from the regular lineup.
The double contours at the elbow and chest, known as Bevel Duo, make the guitar comfortable to hold even during extended playing sessions, and as it is also made from Hawaiian Koa wood, you can fully enjoy the beautiful wood grain.
The top is made of AAA grade Sitka spruce, and the back and sides are made of AA grade Indian rosewood.
The combination of the auditorium body with excellent volume balance and deep bass and the spruce top with clear, fast attack produces an extremely versatile sound that can be used for a wide range of genres, including fingerstyle.
The separation between each note is excellent, making this a great choice for players who want to bring out the bass lines and melody.
The nut width is wide at 45mm, but the outstanding playability provided by the thin neck shape has earned it support from many players.
A special limited edition model that can be ordered in limited quantities!
It is possible to create a model with similar specifications using the Rainbow series, which allows for original customization, but the estimate will be higher than this model.
Recommended for those who want something a little different from the regular model and want to choose with care!! Don't miss this opportunity!!
◆CNR System Active (Composite Neck Reinforcement System)◆
This model is equipped with Forch's proprietary "CNR System Active (Composite Neck Reinforcement System)."
This is an innovative neck design that has been updated from the existing CNR neck system. Its most notable feature is the string height adjustment bolt installed in the neck block, which allows you to adjust the neck angle, without having to grind down the saddle.
Additionally, the neck is more rigid and stable than the previous system, ensuring longer-lasting playability and stability.
*To safely adjust the neck angle using this bolt, special tools and operation by a technician trained in adjustment techniques are required, so please consult the Ikebe Music Store acoustic floor staff.
