Do You Have a Trade In?

Pre-owned in very good condition, this Faith FKM Naked mercury features a solid Spruce top and solid Mahogany back & sides. A great little parlour guitar with a comfortable 24" scale length.

There are some small dings and dents on the top of this guitar as pictured which form the majority of wear. The frets are in great condition with minimal wear.

A great sounding Parlour acoustic guitar at an excellent price. Comes with original hardshell case.

A little beauty, this Mercury is a traditional short-scale parlour model. With the neck joining the body at the 12th fret - rather than the 14th - the strings are held at a slightly lower tension than on regular models. Another implication of the 12th fret join is that the bridge is shifted further from the soundhole. 

These features result in a guitar that is physically easier to play, sounds much bigger than you would imagine and is also simple to handle and transport

The Spruce top and Mahogany body of each of the Faith Naked instruments is 100% solid tonewood – in keeping with all other Faith series. However, the cosmetics and non-essential dressing has been stripped away, leaving the guitars in their natural, Naked state. Satin finished all over, the tonewood is almost entirely unrestricted in its resonant movement, so the tone delivered is far beyond what is normally expected at this price level.

All Naked guitars are now supplied with a padded Faith Gigbag
