Falcon FG100 Acoustic
February 18th, 2008 by TimFalcon acoustic guitars have been around for a while now and have pretty much established themselves as being one of the cheapest acoustic guitars on the market. Originally built without a truss rod and a reinforced neck, the falcon is now build with a fully adjustable truss rod so you can do all your fine tweaking.![]()
The headstock sports 6 silver di-cast unsealed machine heads, which after 10 minutes of playing did a good job of keeping the guitar in tune and the nut has a tidy finish and is seated well for a guitar of this price.
The neck had quite a shallow D shape which is a great help for the beginner and the action is set at a reasonable height, though the edge of the fret board isn’t as tidy as I would have liked, however it’s hard to find a guitar twice the price of the falcon with a better finish.
Sound wise, the falcon delivers a very bright and quite brash sound, perfect for folk and blues players. The high and mid range frequencies are very apparent. The low end is not quite as forthcoming though, this is probably due to the light construction, which is better suited to the beginner.
The construction of the guitar body is quite light which is perfect for the beginner. The body is solid and the internal struts are well finished, which contributes to the overall volume of the guitar.
All in all this guitar is absolutely perfect for a beginner the price is the main reason for this. It’s REALLY cheap for a guitar of this quality, so much so that i have known more experienced guitarists to buy this model as a ‘knock about guitar’ to take on holiday and to festivals (one of whom said he was going to burn it on the last day of a festival, but he grew too attached and still has it to this day. bless) .
