Acoustic Review - Faith Nexus Venus

Nice, I have have a Faith Naked Venus the last couple of years and love it, but it didn't really come alive until I'd had it properly setup with fret dress etc.

Well that was about 6 weeks ago and I haven’t had it cut since then so hopefully you’ll approve of the hair now!!

We did try some eq on the pickup and you could take out some of the tacky-ness but the recording is flat

I’ve just done a load more videos and I’ve actually been a lot harsher on some built in pickups - it’s tricky not to come across as an under saddle hater and I know plenty of people use the OEM pickups that come with their guitars with no issues, but there’s a lot out there that do sound really bad.

We’ve debated recording the pickups through an amplifier rather than direct as, normally, the pickup does improve once you hear it in a room rather than a dry recording, but we’ve not gone that route yet
