(ARCHIVE) Fernandes Revolver Pro Metallic Forest Green 2007
- Description
- Guitarchives
Fernandes Revolver Pro, forest green, made in Taiwan 2007. The Revolver series of Superstrat-style guitars launched in the eighties and were made for several decades. This is a later model, and it's a great example of why these guitars did so well for so long. The neck is a superbly comfy slim-D style shape, offering quick and precise movement up and down the board. The licensed Floyd Rose tremolo was easy to dial in and feels smooth and powerful with great tuning stability. Plugged-in, the moderate output humbuckers deliver a thick, full low end and a well balanced treble and midrange, with a great balance between fast attack and natural compression. The reverse matching headstock, quirky inlays and deep green hue make for a remarkably suave aesthetic, it's very pretty indeed. This will compare very favourably with guitars at two or three times the cash... it's easy being green, right?
