The FE Grand Fingerstyle is the original Schenk Guitar body style and still the flagship choice for discriminating fingerstyle players. “The Ultimate Fingerstyle Guitar” – a claim made by others but definitively substantiated in the FE Grand Fingerstyle through engineering, design and a persistent study of demanding fingerstyle players. Not just any players but the finest players in the world.
It’s the obsessive investigation into the details that transforms a guitar into a masterclass instruments with unparallel playability, sustain and volume. A tight waist allows for easier access and more comfort in a seated position. The mid-sized body with the radical back arch provides extra interior volume resulting in a bigger bass response and robust tone which is the backbone to the signature Schenk guitar sound.
All Schenk Guitars benefit from the proprietary neck design original to the FE Grand Fingerstyle. This is no ordinary neck - more like a machine. Thin and comfortable, stiff and stable. No where else has a neck been analyzed as a complete structural component, where the ebony, mahogany and revolutionary truss-rod all work together in composite action. Sound complicated? It's because it is. But the results are clear and solid notes that sustain forever.
The FE Grand Fingerstyle is available in the Player Series, Custom Series & Insignia.
