#NGD – Furch Yellow GC SR
Posted by DavidScoggins on March 28, 2021 at 2:35 amHooray, my new Furch arrived today! It looks, sounds and feels fantastic. Sitka spruce top, rosewood back and sides. For now here’s a link to their website. Will hopefully post a short video later today. https://furchguitars.com/us/instruments/yellow-series/yellow-sr/

Nice one @Davidscroggins I’ll look forward to your video and hearing it. I’ve been giving furch some serious consideration for my next guitar. I’ll be interested to see how you get on with yours.

Congratulations on purchasing such an amazing guitar! I look forward to hearing it an upcoming open mic. It is really difficult to find Furch guitars in my part of the States but my search continues. I am very happy for you – great choice!

Mr. Scoggins, that was an outstanding demonstration video. I’m drooling every bit as much over your playing as I am over the guitar. Yes, it appears @DavidScoggins has been doing quite a bit of playing for the cat’s critical ear, and the cat must be quite the instructor. Bravo. I expect you won’t want to be leaving the house very much at all. Congrats, and enjoy!

Thanks @dr_dave . I think I’ve found the guitar that I don’t want to put down, so here’s to more progress! 🙂

Love this Scoggsteroo!! Beautiful guitar and a wonderful demo. Congrats man!!

Congrats Dave, Your very precise playing allows this guitar to show off its amazing sound !

Congrats on your newest guitar! I love Furch guitars, and honestly think the Yellow series is a better value than the Red (the difference to my ear is marginal).
This guitar in not exception. What’s surprising is the fullness of the mid-range. The punchy, muscular the mid-range certainly helps the guitar’s projection and presence–this guitar sings with authority! The dynamic range is impressive. The difference between the gentle, intimate finger style playing and the loud, punchy, in-your-face strumming is huge! This guitar can do it all, and do it well.
I think you know this is a keeper. I love this guitar. Congrats again on an amazing addition to your guitarsenal.
You seem to have a knack for finding impressive guitars. I’m curious, did you get a chance to play the Furch before purchasing it?

Hey @Derrick . Thanks for stopping by and listening. We can always count on you to give a knowledgeable and eloquent analysis of a guitar’s voice.
Yes, I played it on two separate occasions before buying it. I was fortunate to see an online article about guitar shops in Shanghai and one I’d never heard of before stocks Furch and a few other high-end brands like Maton, Headway and Greven. I also played a Furch Green GC which was very nice but didn’t have the wow factor of the Yellow.

Isn’t it? I love that it has just a little bit of bling and so remains understated but not at all drab. The sound of it just blows me away. I am one happy chappy!

Thanks @Mike-Gaurnier, although as I live in the future it’s Monday for me and I have to go to work. Next weekend, I should be available for the Friday and or Saturday night VOMs.
-
That’s pretty weird @DavidScoggins . Well, I’ll let you get “Back to the Future”. LOL
Hopefully, I’ll see you next Friday or Saturday. I have truly enjoyed being able to “see” you on those VOMs.

Sounds and looks great. That was quite a comprehensive run through. I can’t wait to give one a try. Hopefully in about 2 weeks. I’ve been looking at the blue ‘entry’ level one.

Thanks @Flyguy. I said I’d make a short video and it ended up being nearly 20 minutes, LOL, and that was after editing! Furch are definitely great value for money, I also played a Green GC and was pretty impressed with that too.

Happy, Happy NGD David. That is awesome. I haven’t checked to see if you posted anything yet; just getting into the forums again. It’s been quite a circus at my house these few weeks.
