Michael Kelly Forte Port Nylon Acoustic Electric Guitar Features
Designed for Truer Acoustic tone
Michael Kelly Port Technology gives the Forte Port Nylon Java a lively, responsive character that you won’t experience from a traditional nylon-string guitar. The offset sound hole allows a continuous connection between the neck joint and the bridge without obstructing the bracing, for livelier, more responsive sound. And the side-mounted sound hole directs sound to you as you play, acting as a personal monitor to support your performance.
Fluid Playability All the Way Up
The Forte Port Nylon Java’s mahogany neck with Comfort C profile is designed for comfortable playability whether chording or playing single-note lines. And the aggressive cutaway at the neck joint allows you to reach the highest notes with comfort.
Pro-Proven Fishman Electronics
As a leader in acoustic amplification, Fishman electronics can be found on stages and in recording studios worldwide. The Forte Port Nylon Java features the Fishman Presys I preamp and Sonicore pickup, for natural and responsive acoustic tone when you need to plug in.
Integrated Fishman Electronics
The active amplification system by Fishman includes an onboard control for volume and one for tone. These are mounted inside of the soundhole for easy access, and this avoids the need to cut a hole in the side of your guitar, maximizing performance.
Port Technology
Acoustic guitar design has not changed significantly since the pre-World War II era. For several years now, the Michael Kelly team has been working on a fresh new approach to acoustic guitars. This has culminated with the development of the new Port Technology. At the core of this innovation is an offset soundhole approach coupled with an all new bracing design. Traditional soundhole placement interrupts a potentially potent “soundboard” area located between the neck and the bridge. By relocating the soundhole, Michael Kelly was able to bring this area to life, providing a louder and more resonate overall top performance. This performance enhancement is especially evident on models with integrated electronics where the added resonance collaborates with the bridge mounted piezo for undeniably better results.
