Faith Nexus Venus Cutaway Electro Solar Flare FPVSF - electro-acoustic guitar

Faith Nexus Venus Cutaway Electro Solar Flare FPVSF is an electro-acoustic guitar from the Nexus , designed for guitarists looking for a solid-wood instrument with a distinctive tone and a striking yet elegant appearance.This model is based on one of Faith's most iconic body styles— Venus Cutaway — a comfortable cutaway Auditorium-style body that combines playing comfort with a full, resonant acoustic sound.

The guitar is made of solid Indonesian mahogany for the top, back, and sides.This design delivers a consistent, linear sound character, with a distinct emphasis on the midrange, warmth, and good response to a stronger attack.The manufacturer emphasizes that the Nexus models effectively bridge the gap between the minimalist Naked series and the more feature-rich PRO and LEGACY models, offering a solid-wood construction, a rich tonal character, and an attractive finish.

Venus Body - Comfort and Versatile Sound

Shape Venus is one of the three original Faith body styles developed when the brand was launched in 2002.Thanks to the lower part of the body, which is 15" and a slightly shallower design, the Venus is comfortable to play for long sessions while still delivering ample power, projection, and a full-bodied tone.

Cutout cutaway facilitates access to higher positions, which is why the FPVSF is ideal not only for accompaniment but also for melodic parts, fingerstyle, and solo playing.This is a very versatile guitar for singer-songwriters, live performers, acoustic musicians, and anyone looking for a single instrument for home, studio, rehearsals, and performances.

Solid mahogany—warmth, balance, and durability for a more aggressive playing style

In the Nexus Venus Solar Flare model, the top, back, and sides are made of solid Indonesian mahogany.All-mahogany guitars have long been prized for their warm, direct, and midrange-focused tone, which works well for accompaniment, vocal-based playing, blues, folk, pop, indie, and classic singer-songwriter styles.

This design produces a sound that is more focused and cohesive than combinations based on different types of wood.The guitar responds well to harder picking and strumming, while maintaining clarity and control.The manufacturer describes this model as an instrument that “likes” to be played with force and works well with a clear, energetic attack.

Solar Flare - a striking satin finish

Series Nexus Solar Flare stands out with a finish inspired by the classic sunburst.The top has a rich, warm color Solar Flare Burst , which highlights the natural grain of the mahogany, while the back and sides retain a deep, stained wood tone.The entire instrument has a satin finish, which makes it pleasant to the touch and gives it a more natural, less “varnished” look and feel.

Visually, the FPVSF combines the simplicity of the Nexus series with a distinctly more theatrical character.Black ABS binding on the body, fingerboard, and headstock; black tuning machines Faith Precision Black and a pickguard made of solid, figured ebony create a cohesive, modern aesthetic.

Macassan ebony details

The fingerboard, bridge, and headstock overlay are made of figured Macassan ebony.This material highlights the instrument's premium character and complements the dark, satin finish of the Nexus series.The guitar also features a Macassan ebony bridge, ebony bridge pins with abalone dots, and a rosette made of abalone with a fiber border.

Out of 12.On the threshold is a distinctive Faith marker shaped like the letter F made of mother-of-pearl.

Fishman Presys 2 Electronics

The Faith FPVSF is equipped with the Fishman Presys 2 with a Fishman Sonicore under the saddle.The preamp features a volume control, a 2-band equalizer, a contour control, a phase switch, and a built-in tuner.This is a practical system for guitarists who want to quickly adjust their sound after plugging into an acoustic amplifier, mixer, or PA system.

The phase switch helps reduce feedback on stage, and the tuner makes it easy to tune quickly without having to use a separate device.This makes the Nexus Venus Solar Flare ready for rehearsals, concerts, recordings, and everyday use with sound systems.

Cover included

The set includes a padded case with handles, shoulder straps, and a pocket for accessories.This is a practical solution for transporting your instrument on a daily basis to rehearsals, lessons, jam sessions, or smaller performances.The manufacturer also notes that a hard case can be purchased separately for additional protection during more intensive concert use.
