Faith Classic Burst Mercury Parlour Electro Acoustic with Scoop &/or views of any of Mercury Range!

Sammy

I tried one of the Faith Naked Mercury Parlours, which was really nice, but unfortunately it had a 43mm nut width, which is just too narrow for me.

So has anyone got or tried the Faith Mecury Classic Burst Palour, (FMESB45-BNC) either with or without pickup, as this model has a 45mm nut?

Sammy

Can anyone please advise if this higher range of Faith Guitars are any good?

Thanks

I have both the Classic Burst Mercury (with Fishman Sonitone pickup) and a Mars FRMG (now discontinued). Are they any good? Yes, they're exceptional and well worth the money.

Is that the Mercury Parlour you have?

It's a few years since I've tried them (my sister was wanting to buy an acoustic), and bear in mind I'm an electric player, but we tried a few of them (not the classic burst version) and really wanted to like them (being an electric player and wanting something more comfy for an electric player) but both my sister and I agreed that it had a tone that was (for us) too middy and honky. She bought a Venus instead.

The Mercury is Faith's parlour model.

I have a Faith but a Venus, the blood moon model. It is a stunning guitar, quality is spot on, and the attention to the small detail and aesthetics makes it more than worth the money. It knocks socks off better known brands in a higher price bracket.

Of course it is, my error got confused!   When you bought the Faith did you compare it to any other parlours, in similar sort of price range, such as the Eastman P series?

No I didn't get a chance to. Eastman guitars aren't widely stocked in Devon.
