Fall in love with the rich, resonant tone and towering low end of Furch's Blue Master's Choice acoustic

By Jackson Maxwell

This luxurious and dynamic acoustic is an ideal choice for the stage or studio

Czech Republic-based manufacturer Furch Guitars has quietly worked its way to the top of the acoustic guitar game in the last couple of years, with a number of solid builds and game-changing designs that put the company in the same conversation as the greats. 

One of the best of these recent top-shelf instruments is the appropriately-named Blue Master's Choice.

This Grand Auditorium-shaped acoustic features a Western red cedar soundboard, African mahogany back and sides, a walnut double ring rosette and artificial tortoise body binding.

Though all those distinct elements give the guitar a uniquely elegant appearance, the Blue Master's Choice really shines sonically, with Furch's proprietary soundboard voicing and an LR Baggs Stagepro Element system, complete with a side-mounted preamp and tuner.

When you put all that together, you get a luxurious acoustic packed with rich, resonant tone and a towering low end that will shine on stage or in the studio.

See our Tech Editor, Paul Riario, explore this guitar's inviting sonics and forward-thinking design in the demo above.
