Design Details

Voicing process

Furch fine-tunes each soundboard individually. The Yellow Deluxe CR's cedar top is voiced for a balanced response across the tonal range with slightly pronounced lows.

Full-Pore High-Gloss Finish

The body is coated with Furch's ultra-thin lacquer, which is designed to protect the guitar while supporting the natural resonance of the tonewoods. It also shows off the grain of the wood.

Bevel Duo

The black Bevel Duo consists of two bevels, one at the forearm on the front and one at the rib position on the back. Furch makes it with 3D printing technology for precision.

CNR System Active neck

The CNR System Active builds on Furch's original CNR System and is designed to hold string action steady as humidity changes. It combines a dual-action truss rod encased in a rigid carbon structure with a solid-wood expansion element that adjusts the neck angle automatically. It is intended to reduce the need for neck resets.

Appointments

The top has black and white binding with five-line black and white purfling. The soundhole rosette is a double ring with green abalone inlay and a black and white line. The ebony fretboard has pearl Eclipse inlays and linear side position markers.

Pickguard

A transparent pickguard protects the top and lets the wood show through. Furch designed it to have no effect on the tonal qualities of the soundboard.

Hiscox case

The high-rigidity Hiscox hardshell case has polyurethane insulating foam to help shield the guitar from changes in external climatic conditions.
