General

The Czech Republican master-builders, Furch are the quiet legends of the acoustic guitar world. Exacting quality and tasteful design meet in the deeply considered, all-solid build of the Yellow Master's Choice Gc-CR SPA electro-acoustic. The solid western red cedar soundboard completes the solid AA-grade Indian rosewood body, while the African mahogany neck and luxurious-feeling ebony fretboard complete the heady mix to shape a sweet, balanced foundation with a refined bite at the edge.

The Yellow Master's Choice GC-CR SPA: Piezo & Microphone Combo

Furch have turned to the ever-capable LR Bags to take care of the electronics section of this masterful electro-acoustic. The fitted Stagepro Anthem includes an undersaddle piezo which combines with an interior body microphone placed, the result of which can be balanced using the fitted Mix control for a personalised on stage-sound, and sculpted further using the provided bass and treble controls. For more refined, technical tweaking when using an amplifier, a phase and notch control has also been included, alongside a built-in tuner.

Full-Pore Finish, Gotoh 510 Tuners & Graph Tech TUSQ Nut & Saddle

The entire guitar has been finished with Furch's own full-pore treatment, before the body has been given a polished, high-gloss final layer. The substantial, solid feeling of the V-profile neck, meanwhile, has been sealed in a butter-smooth feeling satin-gloss and bound to the body using the highly stable Furch CNR System. The tuning and intonation is just as reliably stable, and comes fully supported by a set of Gotoh 510 machine heads and a Graph Tech TUSQ saddle and nut. This comfortably compact grand auditorium model also comes complete with a high quality Hiscox hardcase.
