A special anniversary edition celebrating 45 years of Furch Guitars
Introducing the Violet Anniversary Gc-EMa ANT, a celebratory take on one of their most popular models, created as a tribute to Furch’s history and the players who have shaped it.
Built on the proven foundation of the Violet Series, this anniversary model features an individually voiced Engelmann spruce top paired with African mahogany back and sides. The individually voiced top soundboard is further complemented by a voiced back plate, enhancing the instrument’s overall resonance while delivering clarity, warmth, and an immediate, responsive feel. It comes factory-equipped with an LR Baggs Anthem pickup, making it equally at home on stage or in the studio.
A Tribute to 45 Years
To mark the occasion, the guitar features exclusive 45th anniversary graphics rendered in faux tortoise on a mahogany headstock, serving as a nod to the legacy of Furch during this year of celebration.
Details that Tell a Story
The same anniversary motif appears on the black pickguard, further distinguishing this limited edition. These visual elements are exclusive to this model and will not appear on standard production instruments.
Limited to 90 Instruments Worldwide
Only 90 guitars of the Violet Anniversary Gc-EM a will be made. Each one represents a tangible piece of Furch history, supplied with a gigbag and destined to become part of a very small family of instruments created for this milestone moment.
Resonant Sound with the Furch Booster Soundport
The Booster Soundport revolutionizes your playing experience by enhancing your guitar’s sound projection and body resounance. This innovative feature reduces internal air pressure within the guitar’s body, allowing the top board to move more freely and produce a stronger, fuller sound with the same strumming effort. Strategically positioned to direct sound towards you, the player, it ensures you hear your music as clearly and richly as your audience, creating an immersive and authentic performance experience every time you play.
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.
