Fano Oltre Series JM6 P90 Heavy Distress Copper with Gig Bag
The feel & playability of this guitar is incredible. That's where Fano excels - while their guitars look super cool, it's all about the expert craftsmanship and super comfortable feel of the hand-shaped necks. The 60's style C neck carve and 9.5 - 12" compound radius make this a breeze to play all the way up the neck. The back of the neck is worn in, with most of the finish removed, making it a breeze to play. The Kluson-style tuners top it off, and it's all anchored by a Tone Pros bridge & tailpiece for enhanced tone & sustain.
Speaker of tone, this one kills. At Fano's suggestion, we went with the Lollar 50's Wind P90 pickups. They are based off of pickups from a '53 Goldtop, to produce lower output, a delicate attack, and less midrange and bass. This results in a brighter overall tone with less grinding distortion. It's also slower to overdrive an amp as compared with stock P-90s. An excellent choice for players seeking an early Freddie King style tone....and still versatile enough to be used in a variety of styles & settings. Includes de-gaussed Alnico 2 magnets.
This guitar has the feel and vibe of an old vintage instrument but with some modern tweaks, upgrades and reliability. The Alder body is light (the guitar weighs in at just 7.10 lbs) and resonant. The relic work, in our opinion, is perfect - there are not many that can do it as well as Fano. The 3-ply Cream pickguard and Cream radio knobs are a nice touch on this one.
Light and quick, this curvy beauty is made to respond to the touch. Get as rough or smooth as you like, the contoured Alder body and satin-smooth Maple neck are built for comfort as well as speed. Plain and simple, this is a great example of the amazing work being done at Fano with the Oltre series. Sound, feel and looks all get top marks. And, it comes with a premium Fano gig bag.
