Faith Naked Venus 12 String

Faith Naked models expose the very soul of the guitar for all to hear and experience. Each instrument is beautiful in its simplicity, free from cosmetic additions, making it accessible to players of all levels.

The Venus Shape: A Timeless All-Rounder

The Venus is the much-loved, all-round winner of guitar shapes and one of the three original Faith body shapes launched in 2002. Over time, it has become an industry reference point, offering the ideal balance of size and sound. With its 15" lower bout and shallower body, the Venus is comfortable to play for long periods without sacrificing tone or acoustic power.

A 12-String Joy

In its 12-string version, the Naked Venus 12 is a joy to play. Unlike most 12-string guitars, it features an easily manageable body and a remarkably slim neck profile, ensuring a smooth playing experience.

Pure Tone Machine

This "Venus" shaped 12-string from Faith's "Naked" range delivers huge value for money. Stripped of cosmetic extras, it focuses purely on tone. Crafted with a solid spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides, and equipped with on-board Fishman electronics (including an integrated tuner), it offers everything needed for fully acoustic or plugged-in performance, recording, or sheer enjoyment.

A padded Faith-branded gigbag is included for added convenience.
