Warm and balanced all-solid tonewoods
The combination of a Western red cedar soundboard and African mahogany back and sides gives the Blue Master’s Choice a warm, harmonically rich voice that works beautifully for fingerstyle, strumming and melodic playing. Cedar provides immediate responsiveness and strong dynamic sensitivity, while the mahogany adds definition and structure across the frequency range. Together, they create a balanced tonal character with slightly enhanced lows, making the guitar equally suited to intimate solo performances and full-band arrangements. The open-pore finish enhances this acoustic performance by allowing the body to resonate more freely.
Furch voicing and resonance enhancing finish
Furch’s proprietary voicing process individually tunes each soundboard for maximum clarity, projection and harmonic detail. This meticulous hand-finishing ensures that every guitar rings with a clear, articulate response across the entire tonal spectrum. Complementing this, the ultra-thin Finish enhances both volume and sustain by avoiding the dampening effects of heavier lacquers. Not only does this improve tonal performance, it also highlights the natural beauty of the cedar and mahogany, giving the guitar a stunning organic aesthetic.
Advanced CNR System Active neck design
The innovative CNR System Active takes neck stability to a new level by combining a carbon-reinforced dual-action truss rod with an integrated expansion element that adjusts the neck angle automatically. This engineering ensures that the guitar maintains optimum playability over time, reducing the need for neck resets and minimising maintenance. Whether humidity rises or falls, the system keeps the action consistent, allowing players to focus on expression and technique rather than setup concerns.
Stage ready with LR Baggs Stagepro Element
Designed for professional performance, the LR Baggs Stagepro Element pickup system offers a clean, natural amplified sound with powerful onboard control. The side-mounted preamp includes a three-band EQ, phase switch, and a sensitive tuner for quick adjustments on stage. A Garrett Null notch filter helps eliminate problematic frequencies, ensuring a warm, pristine tone even in challenging acoustic environments. Easy battery access further streamlines live use, making the instrument highly reliable for touring musicians and regular performers.
