Faith Legacy Series Earth CE Dark Roast

Faith Legacy Series Earth CE Dark Roast: Premium All-Mahogany Acoustic-Electric Guitar Delivering Rich Vintage Character and Groundbreaking Resonance

The Faith Legacy Series guitars raise the standard for professional quality ever higher, focusing entirely on Patrick James Eggle’s historic acoustic body designs. This breathtaking “Earth” model is meticulously crafted based upon Patrick’s historic ‘Linville’ shape, taking its core inspiration from the legendary Orchestra Models (OM) of old. Across the lower bout, it measures 15” in width—the same as the Venus model—but features an overall contour that is noticeably more refined and elegant. This specific size and shape definitely qualify the Earth as a perfect ‘all-rounder’ acoustic instrument; it remains big enough to perform exceptionally well with deep projection when played unplugged, yet is compact enough to be used comfortably on stage for long periods by players of any stature and playing style.

Key Features

• Aged to Perfection with Torrefied African Khaya Mahogany Top: Features a premium African Khaya Mahogany top treated with a precise torrefaction process. By air-drying and then roasting the wood in a specialized kiln with controlled oxygen levels, natural moisture is removed to accelerate cellular aging. This causes the wood fibers to settle into a steady state instantly—replicating a guitar played for over 20 years—resulting in a rich caramel hue, superior climate stability, and an immediate mature, open vintage tone rarely found on all-mahogany guitars.
• All-Solid African Khaya Mahogany Construction in ‘Dark Roast’ Stain: Beautifully matching the top, the back and sides are crafted from solid African Khaya Mahogany, carefully stained with an elegant ‘Dark Roast’ colour palette. African Mahogany is noticeably stiffer and stronger than standard Indonesian variants, allowing the wood to be crafted slightly thinner. This premium design enables the body to resonate more readily, producing a highly focused mid-range with a well-controlled warmth and a unique brightness.
• Advanced Fishman FLEX-T-BLEND Electronics System: Fitted with an elite preamp system that features an under-saddle piezo pickup combined with a high-quality condenser microphone located inside the soundhole. This dual-pickup configuration delivers an impeccable sonic balance and allows percussive body techniques to be fully explored. The preamp integrates three ultra-discreet knobs on the guitar’s side, a built-in tuner with a subtle screen, an EQ contour control, a Piezo/Mic blend control, and a phase control to eliminate feedback.
• Luxurious Master-Grade Appointments: Every FG5 Dark Roast model is bound in highly figured Ebony and features a figured Ebony fingerboard and bridge. For unparalleled resonance and vibration transfer, it is equipped with a genuine unbleached natural bone nut, saddle, and bridge pins. A 1mm thick figured Ebony pickguard is also meticulously installed to protect the beautiful top while adding a touch of class to the aesthetic.
• ABS Moulded Hard Case with Plush Interior Included: Your investment is fully secured on the road, as every Faith Legacy Earth Dark Roast comes complete with a premium ABS moulded hard case. Designed with a luxurious plush interior to protect your beautiful new guitar from the elements and physical impacts, keeping the guitar in this tailored hard case when not in use ensures maximum long-term stability.
