Fano Jm6 oltre Shell pink

Amazing quality and sound guitar.

This particular JM6 model features:

Alder body, vintage tint maple neck, maple fretboard. 9.5-12" compound fretboard radius. Early 60's C-shaped neck and a familiar 25.5" scale length.

Vintage shell pink finish with matching upper headstock. This guitar features a shop favorite VOS style light distress on body to maintain a cleaner look, but also offers a familiar, slightly broken-in feel. Fano vintage-style tuners are aged to perfection to match.

Medium-aged nickel hardware (Fano Humbuckers, TonePros Tune-O-Matic bridge) looks at home paired with aged mint green pickguard, but the stars of the show here are the Lollar Imperial humbuckers, wired to coil split with push/pull knobs on the volume and tone knobs.

That’s pretty hot.

 

[Chicken Man]

Not really for me, but I can see why people dig it.

 

[Tig]

I'm usually not a shell pink fan, but that's hawt.

 

[jelloman]

One of the very few Dennis Fano designed guitars that I do not find completely objectionable...except for the color...

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

A Motörhead sticker would look really good on that.

 

[Motorik]

I like it, but I think I'd rather have an ordinary Jazzmaster.

 

[mongooz]

well....it's better than yesterday's offering.
but not by much.

 

[Lerxst]

I like it, but I think I'd rather have an ordinary Jazzmaster.

yeah, IMO if you're gonna screw with the format, go wild and not mild.

 

[Pine Apple Slim]

Swap those HBs for some Filtertrons and I’m in!

 

[xStonr]

Very nice

 

[Gary Blanchard]

I like that one a lot.

 

[Denverdave]

I do like that despite the color. Real JM pickups though would be better.

 

[DFB]

Nope

 

[wok]

Not for me

 

[Motorik]

Half the point of a JM for me is the trem. I want surfy shimmer and rockabilly warble. The Tuneomatic doesn't cut it, leaving me with regular old vanilla boomer bending

[jp_nyc]
