Even though this is the standard neck lamination pattern for a
Further guitar, it sure is pretty! Cherry as the center laminate, flanked by Purpleheart and Western Maple. |

Peghead veneers are selected to match the body laminations. Usually the Further
guitar has a front peghead veneer of Ebony, but Justin wanted all the beautiful Burl Maple he could get. |

I find it to be a gutsy (yet eloquent) instrument. Even for its small
size, it has quite a powerful voice - and it really wants to be played!
The clarity of tone is really what distinguishes it, though - everything
I read about Alembic electronics is true - shiny highs that aren't at
all brittle, punchy and clear mids and lows, and tone controls that need
to be explored and learned - it really doesn't sound like any of my
other instruments. It needed to be lived with for a while before I found
the perfect settings for my style - which makes it truly unique, and
well worth the wait. We're so glad you're pleased with your Further. We loved how keeping the project fairly simple made the Burl Maple the focus of the visuals, and that the tone remained flexible. Enjoy! |
