Sitting at the top of the Faith Guitar range, the PJE Legacy series guitars set a new level for professional excellence. The Faith Legacy Earth model is based on Patrick James Eggle's 'Linville' model and is a true OM style electro acoustic offering unparallelled quality, tone and playability.
Featuring an all-solid wood construction, the Legacy Earth uses highly figured, book-matched rosewood for the back and sides. This is perfectly coupled with a kiln-aged, sitka spruce top, which, together, deliver exceptional looks and produce a rich, seasoned tone with a bright, articulate resonance and plenty of clarity.
The Sitka Spruce top is kiln aged through a torrefication process. Prior to being kiln-roasted, the Spruce is air dried. As the wood cools, exacting amounts of moisture are added back to the wood. This process reults in a much more stable timber allowing it to produce rich, mature voiced, mellow tone that would take many years to achieve under normal cirmstances. Aesthetically, the torrefication process adds a golden-caramel colouring to the Spruce, further adding to its higher-end appeal.
The body is paired with a solid mahogany neck featuring a solid ebony fretboard. The guitar also features solid flamed maple binding, an ebony bridge and pickguard, and a solid bone nut, saddle and bridge pins.
Electrics come courtesy of Fishman's latest Flex-Blend preamp system. This combines an undersaddle piezo pickup with a condensor microphone. The piezo helps deliver a bright, defined edge to the tone whist the microphone adds body and depth, together producing a rich, dynamic sounding guitar.
The package is completed by the inclusion of a high quality Faith Legacy hardcase.
