The Furch Grand Nylon series blends the best of both worlds—offering the warm tone and easy playability of a classical guitar, paired with the comfortable neck profile and ergonomics of a steel-string. The GNc 4-CRa model features a cedar top with Indian rosewood back and sides, delivering rich, balanced sound along with a striking natural appearance. Its proven body shape and bracing design provide excellent volume, sustain, and dynamic response.
Furch CNR System® Active Neck Design
The CNR System® Active provides the freedom to quickly and easily adjust your setup and the confidence that your guitar will always feel just as great as the last time you played it, regardless of environmental conditions. This innovation allows you to immerse yourself in music and strengthen the connection to your instrument.
- Redesigned heel-to-fingerboard structure improves neck heel stability and transfers string tension to the expansive element and adjustment screw. Its length and rigidity ensure optimal neck geometry and excellent playability.
- Eccentric screw secures solid lateral position of the neck.
- Two-way adjustable truss rod allows for precise adjustments of your neck relief.
- Carbon fiber truss rod casing keeps your neck relief smooth over long periods, even in tough conditions.
- Expansion gap accommodates natural wood movement due to humidity changes.
- Expansive element is the heart of CNR System® Active, responding to ambient humidity by expanding or contracting to maintain consistent neck performance.
- String action adjustment screw allows fine-tuning of your string action for personalized playability.
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.
Unique voicing process
The premium quality of the GNc 4-CRa is highlighted by its individually voiced soundboard, carefully tuned to bring out the instrument’s full tonal potential. This results in a beautifully clear, harmonically rich, well-balanced, and highly dynamic sound across the entire tonal range.
Resonance enhancing finish
The instrument features a proprietary Full-Pore High-Gloss Finish designed to enhance its tonal performance. This ultrathin, highly durable lacquer provides excellent protection while beautifully highlighting the natural grain and character of the wood.
Attractive look
The attractive look of the GNc 4-CRa is underscored by faux tortoise used for body binding and headstock inlays.
Transparent protection
The soundboard of the GNc 4-CRa is protected by a transparent pickguard that allows the natural beauty of the wood to shine through. The pickguard is designed to have no effect on the tonal qualities of the soundboard.
Headstock appointments
The headstock is adorned with a gorgeous square figure with mother-of-pearl and faux tortoise inlays.
High-rigidity Hiscox case
Maximum protection during transport is provided by a high-rigidity Hiscox case with polyurethane insulating foam that shields the instrument from changes in external climatic conditions.
