Fernandes Revolver attacked with a sander


Did this last year, but never got round to posting pics.

Just a stock Fernandes Revolver Pro, which is a fairly unimpressive guitar overall (IMO), but the sustainer is cool. Got bored with the none-more-black metallicness of it, so I removed it (revealing an alder body made up of about a zillion pieces) and tung oiled the body. It's was a damned shoddy job, and I got bored sanding the inside of the horns, so there's still a little paint by the neck pocket. Still looks much better than stock IMO and the removal of all that paint warmed the sound up quite a bit :-)

Thanks. Gives it a kind of Nuno vibe I reckon. I traded that guitar for a '96 Epi Les Paul, which was the dumbest thing I ever did.

Sorry if I'm being dumb, but what does FAP mean?
