Overview

Vintage taken forward from master builder Dennis Fano.

The Fano Guitars Alt De Facto RB6 Medium Distress Electric Guitar pays homage to some of the classic American guitar makers of the mid-20th century. From the aged gold or nickel hardware and well-worn feel of the distressed lacquer finish to details such as the traditional German carved top, the vibe is purely vintage.

Although the Alt de Facto's are built on a solid foundation of classic aesthetics and time-tested materials like alder, swamp ash and mahogany, they are propelled into the 21st century by features that include a compound radius fingerboard, TonePros and Gotoh hardware and custom wound Fralin pickups that deliver a wide range of tones suitable for any style of music.

The guitar' natural resonance hints at a balanced overall tone with just the right amount of warmth for most styles. Each Fano guitar is individually handcrafted one at a time, so no two are alike. Includes case.
