AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
The Furch Pioneer-CM a is a premium all-solid travel acoustic guitar that proves compact instruments don’t have to compromise on tone. Featuring a solid Western Red cedar top paired with solid African mahogany back and sides, this short-scale guitar delivers a warm, responsive voice with rich overtones, excellent balance, and impressive projection for its size. It’s an ideal companion for songwriting, practice, and travel, while still offering the depth and nuance serious players expect from a full-scale instrument.
Built with Furch’s most advanced technologies, the Pioneer-CM a benefits from individually voiced soundboards, the Booster Soundport resonator for enhanced projection and player feedback, and the innovative CNR System® Active neck design. Together, these features ensure effortless playability, consistent string action, and a lively, dynamic response straight out of the gig bag. Finished with understated black binding and protected by a high-protection gig bag, the Pioneer-CM a is engineered for musicians who want world-class tone wherever they go.
