VOTED THE UK'S BEST ACOUSTIC GUITAR 2016
The Venus Blood Moon is a beautiful instrument which uses only the finest, figured Javanese Trembesi for the top, back and sides. This indigenous Indonesian timber has long been used by furniture makers for its stunning appearance, but we have been convinced of its tonal properties for a good while too.
Not unlike Hawaiian Koa, a solid Trembesi instrument reacts in a similar way to Mahogany, delivering warmth and balance across the strings, while still having a little rosewood-eque sparkle at the top end.
The exclusive 'Blood Moon' burst finish and solid flamed maple binding serves to enhance its stunning appearance further.
Each guitar will have its own distinct figuring: Some with straight, pronounced verticle grains; Some with horizontal 'flaming'; and even some with a combination of the two. But regardless of the individual figuring of each model, the tone will be wonderful, and the appearance will be truly unique.

"Absolutely stunning looks and a beautiful tone. Very impressed!"
"Bonjour,
Elle Eclipse deja mes deux autres guitares, Martin 000-X1 et Taylor 110CE qui sont dans la meme gamme de prix.
Un son raffine, equilibre, riche en harmoniques delicats (cordes changees pour du Phosphore Bronze Elixir nano). Une dynamique qui enrichie enormement le jeu. Aussi a l'aise en streaming qu' en picking.
L'electronique est vraiment surprenante, Je ne m'attendais pas a ce niveau de qualite sonore une fois branche (je ne suis pas trop fan du piezo en general).
Le confort general est tres bon, on peut jouer des heures...
La finition est franchement irreprochable avec un accastillage digne d'une gratte haut de gamme 2 fois plus cher.
Bref, que du bonheur et dire qu'elle va s'ameliorer avec le temps...
Une petite remarque juste, pas de Pickguard (vu la beaute de la Table en trembesi, on peut comprendre). Apres quelques heures de strumming, les premieres rayures sont apparues.
J'ai donc decide de poser un pickguard transparent tres fin.
Elle est chez le luthier pour cela et pour un reglage complet (changement de tirant et pose sillet os).
Il a franchement hallucine au regard du prix !
Un ami possede la douze cordes Venus Natural, il est comble. Rapport qualite prix assez surprenant.
