The front of the Grand Auditorium Gc-LC is made from premium solid alpine spruce, while the back and sides are made from American cocobolo with a beautiful wood grain. The Full-Pore High-Gloss finish, a full-pore, high-gloss lacquer finish, enhances the acoustic properties of the guitars, providing excellent surface protection and accentuating the wood's natural texture. Both tops are complemented by the new Bevel Duo ergonomic feature, which provides maximum comfort even during prolonged playing.
The Furch CNR System's two-way neck bracing increases the neck's strength, stability and durability. The guitar's refined look is accentuated by the Hawaiian koa body, fingerboard and headstock binding with white contrasting lines, the koa centre strip of the back plate with white contrasting lines on both sides, the ornate rosette composed of solid koa and mother-of-pearl (abalone) and the ebony pegs in the fingerboard. The transparent pickguard lets the natural grain of the wood stand out while not affecting the resonance of the soundboard. Orientation on the ebony fingerboard is facilitated by decorative mother-of-pearl (abalone) markers. Stable tuning is guaranteed by high-quality Gotoh 510 Gold Patina mechanics with ebony pegs.
The guitar comes in a luxurious moulded case.
Few Czech products have the worldwide reputation of Furch guitars. The company started in 1981 in one of the many garages of socialist Czechoslovakia, still illegal at the time. Today, the company's acoustic guitars are played by Suzanne Vega, Glen Hansard, David Knopfler, Aneta Langerová, David Koller, Xavier Baumaxa and many others. Furch guitars are best advertised by their reputation.
