The Furch Blue Performance EM Grand Auditorium Cutaway is built for players who want comfort, clarity, and a modern acoustic experience that feels effortless from the first chord. Featuring an AA Engelmann spruce top and AA African mahogany back and sides, this model blends warmth and articulation in a way that feels balanced and musical. The open pore finish keeps the guitar feeling natural and responsive, while the Bevel Duo Black ergonomic contour makes long sessions noticeably more comfortable.

What really makes this guitar stand out is how alive it feels under the hands. The Engelmann spruce top responds quickly and smoothly, giving it a slightly softer, more nuanced attack compared to traditional Sitka. Mahogany keeps the voice focused and centered, making it a great fit for singer-songwriters and players who want clarity without excessive overtones. The Booster soundport on the side enhances the player’s perspective, letting you hear more of the detail and depth while you play. Whether fingerpicking or strumming, the grand auditorium body keeps everything balanced and controlled.

The playability reflects Furch’s thoughtful engineering. A Soft V neck profile, 1 3/4 inch nut width, and ebony fingerboard create a comfortable and confident feel across styles. The CNR Active neck joint system works to maintain consistent action, supported by a carbon-reinforced two-way truss rod for long-term stability. Black TUSQ nut and saddle, ebony bridge and pins, and smooth chrome tuners round out a build that feels precise and dependable. With its clean black binding, understated rosette, and included Furch gigbag, the Blue Performance EM is a modern grand auditorium cutaway built for players who want balance, comfort, and an inspiring acoustic voice both unplugged and on stage.
