The Faith FX Neptune FNCE Cutaway Electro is an all-solid, electro-acoustic guitar engineered for musicians seeking commanding acoustic authority and modern onstage comfort.
By pairing an all-solid exotic timber construction with an integrated forearm contour and an advanced, Fishman preamp system, the FX Neptune serves as a highly dependable and expressive instrument, great for regular live performance, studio tracking, and home playing sessions.
All-Solid Indonesian Mango Construction
This premium electro acousitc is constructed entirely from solid Indonesian mango, utilized for the top, back, and sides. Selecting all-solid timber allows the instrument to mature dynamically over time, opening up structurally to deliver increasing resonance and harmonic complexity as the years pass. As a hybrid tonewood, mango shares the focused mid-range punch of mahogany and the sweet, complex warmth of koa.
The sonic signature is defined by a robust upper-bass response, a highly stable mid-range presence, and a gently rounded high-end that ensures a deep, characterful acoustic voice free from harshness.
Baby-Jumbo Body Shape with Ergonomic Forearm Contour
The Neptune body shape is directly inspired by Patrick James Eggle's acclaimed Saluda design, featuring a 16" (40.6 cm) lower bout. This specific layout delivers the acoustic power and deep projection of a traditional jumbo without the awkward physical bulk, maintaining excellent presence when played unamplified. Built with a smooth cutaway, it offers unrestricted access to the higher frets for solo runs and upper-register chord shapes.
Faith has integrated a beautifully sculpted, figured maple ergonomic forearm contour into the upper edge of the lower bout, significantly reducing muscle fatigue and improving player comfort during extended sets.
Modern Playability and Ebony Fingerboard
The solid mahogany neck features a satin finish for a fast, non-sticky playing feel and is joined to the body via a rigid Patrick James Eggle bolt-on design that maximizes vibrational transfer. The neck is capped with a premium Macassan figured ebony fingerboard, sporting a comfortable 16" (40.6 cm) radius suitable for clean chording and smooth string bends, accented with a single Mother of Pearl "F" inlay at the 12th fret.
Comprehensive Fishman INK3 Electronics
Live amplification is managed by an integrated Fishman INK3 preamp system coupled with a high-performance undersaddle piezo pickup. Unlike minimal internal soundhole controls, this premium setup features a side-mounted, flush-fitting control panel that puts professional tone-shaping directly at the player's fingertips. The preamp provides highly responsive three-band equalization (bass, middle, and treble) alongside a master volume control and an onboard chromatic tuner for swift adjustments on stage. The output jack, battery compartment, and strap button are neatly integrated into a single block at the base of the guitar to ensure a reliable and clutter-free cable connection.
Premium Hardware and Included Hardcase
At the headstock and bridge, structural integrity is anchored by high-density TUSQ nut and saddle components alongside chrome Grover Rotomatic machine heads for dependable tuning stability.
The guitar comes complete with a premium woodshell harcase with plush lining, there to protect the instrument when travelling to gig, shows or just when not in use.
