After last month’s deep dive into the goings-on at Furch, which saw editor Jamie head off to Eastern Europe to visit the company’s workshops, we thought it would be a grand idea to supplement that feature with a look at a trio of the company’s guitars.
The rumble that the Czech company began years ago when its instruments first began finding their way into the UK’s acoustic fraternity has since become something of a roar. We’ve had our eyes on Furch’s guitars for many moons and have taken every opportunity to pick one up whenever possible. Quality across the board has always been very high and remarkably consistent, and we’ve tipped them as a bigname-in-waiting in the acoustic world.
If you click over to the Furch website, you’ll see the catalogue is large and colourful – and quite literally so, as Furch names its ranges after colours. Thinking how to best present a cross-section of the wares it offers, we settled upon the idea of taking a single body shape – the Grand Auditorium – and looking at models from three different price-brackets.

BASIC INSTINCTS
The sophisticated range of Swedish-designed guitars made by .strandberg* has lured thousands of players over to the headless side. But the company's new stripped-back Boden Essential model is its strongest play yet for the hearts and minds of mainstream players
Second String
As PRS's more affordable USA-made S2 line moves into its second decade, the series gets a revamp with - at last - USA-made pickups and electronics. What took so long?
PABLO VAN DE POEL
When a band from The Netherlands describes themselves as 'raw, psychedelic Southern rock', it may take a little cognitive processing to work out what that might mean. One listen to DeWolff, however, and you will be duly transported to the 60s for some fuzzed-out rock 'n' roll
THE BERNIE MARSDEN COLLECTION
With a fabulous collection of the late Bernie Marsden's guitars, amps and other highly collectable music gear going under the auctioneer's hammer on 11 June, we were thrilled to have the chance of a sneak preview
LENNY KRAVITZ
Some 35 years since the release of his debut LP, for his 12th record, Blue Electric Light, Lenny Kravitz is back again with equal doses of vigour and vibes, using vintage guitars and the purest valve amps
GEORGE VJESTICA
You may not know him at first glance, but the work of Stoke-on-Trent native George Vjestica has probably impacted some of your favourite albums and movies
DICKEY BETTS
Emerging from the shadow of Duane to write signature hit Ramblin' Man, the Allman Brothers guitarist was a hard-living pioneer of Southern rock
NICK GUPPY
It is with great sadness that we report the passing of our highly valued amplifier guru, who died suddenly in April
Lucky Break
Alex Bishop blends old wood with new in an attempt to fix a severely damaged guitar headstock
Tones Behind The Tracks
Cedric Burnside learnt at the knee of his fabled grandfather, but his latest album is a hill country blues masterclass on his own terms
