Remarkable sound
Sound is the most important consideration for Furch guitars. Their excellent acoustic qualities are the result of state-of-the art technologies, proprietary production processes and precision craftsmanship combined with the use of the best available tonewoods. The Violet ER is no fluke. Hear its exceptional sound quality for yourself with Tonepedia’s app. You can compare its unique sound with other Furch models and also guitars from other manufacturers.

Find your dream sound with a unique soundboard tuning process
Our individual tuning technology refines the characteristics of each soundboard, resulting in a crystal-clear and harmonically rich sound. This precise adjustment of dynamics, loudness, tonal balance and structural rigidity of the board ensures a balanced and dynamic performance across the entire tonal range, making your music truly come alive.

Let every note shine with a resonant finish 
Every Furch guitar is finished with our unique ultra-thin lacquer that not only protects but also enhances the natural resonance of your instrument, contributing to a richer, fuller sound that makes every note stand out. It also enhances the natural beauty of the wood grain, making your Furch guitar both sonically and visually impressive.

Designed for play, built to last thanks to CNR System ® Active
 The Furch CNR System ® Active neck construction builds on the success of the original CNR System ® and offers improved stability and precision of neck adjustment, while seamlessly adapting to changes in ambient humidity and maintaining the instrument's excellent playability. This improved version features a two-way bracing encased in a solid carbon construction and also includes a solid wood expansion element that automatically adjusts the neck slope and maintains consistent string height over time. With smooth and precise adjustment of neck deflection and string height, the CNR System ® Active ensures that your guitar's characteristics are consistent every time you play.

• The improved construction connecting the neck bridge to the fingerboard improves neck stability and transfers string tension to the expansion element and tuning screw. Its length and strength ensure optimal neck geometry and excellent playability.
• The eccentric screw ensures a stable lateral position of the neck.
• Two-way bracing allows for precise adjustment of neck deflection.
• The carbon neck brace shell maintains stable neck deflection over long periods of time, even under demanding conditions.
• The expansion gap allows for natural movement of the wood due to changes in humidity.
• The solid wood expansion element is the heart of the CNR Active® system. It responds to ambient humidity by expanding or contracting, helping to maintain consistent neck characteristics.
• The string height adjustment screw allows for fine-tuning of the string height to customize the playability to your preference.

Contrasting details
The Violet Master's Choice's spruce top  is decorated with contrasting black binding, pickguard, and ring rosette.

High player comfort
The ebony fingerboard of the guitar is equipped with special frets with shortened legs, which intentionally do not reach its side edges. This prevents them from possibly climbing out due to the fingerboard drying out at lower humidity. The resulting space is filled with flexible ebony-colored putty, which can perfectly absorb any changes.

LR Baggs Stagepro Element pickup system
The Violet Master's Choice guitar is equipped with the LR Baggs Stagepro Element system, which conveys all its sonic nuances in detail, even under the most demanding conditions. In addition to the bridge pickup, the system also includes a three-band equalizer with phase inverter and a chromatic tuner mounted in the body of the instrument.
