The Violet SM does not compromise on sound or workmanship. The soundboard of the instrument is made from carefully selected Sitka spruce, whose excellent acoustic properties are further enhanced by our innovative individual voicing process. The back and sides are made from African mahogany. This combination gives the guitar a perfectly balanced sound with clear highs, warm bass and long-lasting sustain. It is thus ideal for delicate fingerstyle as well as more aggressive flatpicking or strumming.

In addition to a number of dark appointments, the beautiful natural appearance of the instrument is further enhanced by our Open-Pore Finish, which leaves the deep pores of the wood open. The Violet SM is available in both dreadnought and grand auditorium with cutaway.

Unique voicing process

The premium nature of the Violet SM is underscored by the fact that the soundboard is individually tuned using the voicing process, which enhances the instrument’s tonal properties to the highest level. Thanks to that, the Violet SM has a crystalline clear, harmonically rich, balanced, and highly dynamic sound across the entire tonal spectrum.

Open-Pore Finish

The instrument features Open-Pore Finish, a special thin finish that promotes the natural sonic qualities of tonewoods and provides an excellent level of surface protection.

Furch CNR System® Neck Design

A high precision, dual-action truss rod maintains neck stability and allows for fine adjustment of the neck relief, bilaterally. The truss rod is housed in a highly rigid carbon casing which enables a very smooth and controlled neck relief, ensuring the best playability and enduring optimal setup.

A fully adjustable dual-action truss rod for highly precise adjustment of the neck bow in both the convex and concave directions.
A highly rigid carbon casing that maintains the neck in the set position over a period much longer than is the case with standard neck joint designs and, at the same time, facilitates a gradual bow in the neck, a factor of essential importance for playability.
A casting made of special alloy located inside the neck heel that ensures a stable position of the neck and its angle vis-à-vis the body.

Contrasting black details

The spruce soundboard of the Violet SM is decorated with binding, pickguard and an annular rosette in a contrasting black design.

Available in Dreadnought and Gc body shapes with a neck-to-body joint positioned at the 14th fret, it strikes a balance between comfort and tonal power.

The black pickguard with a transparent extension protects the guitar’s surface while seamlessly blending into its aesthetic.

Playability is another critical aspect where the Furch Violet D SM excels.

The inclusion of a TUSQ fully compensated saddle and zero fret ensures excellent intonation across the fretboard, meaning every note you play is in tune and sounds as intended. The neck is reinforced with the CNR System dual-action adjustment, providing stability and allowing for easy setup customization as your playing style evolves.

For performing musicians, the integrated electronics make this guitar particularly versatile. As an electro-acoustic model, it can be easily amplified without sacrificing its natural acoustic tone, making it perfect for live gigs, studio recording, or practice with headphones.
