Information

Brand New w/ Warranty. We are an authorized Fano Dealer.

Like what you see? All photos are of the exact instrument you will receive!

Each Fano Oltre series guitar is handbuilt in the USA using an old-growth North American Alder body, maple neck and a nitrocellulose lacquer finish. The result is a resonant, lively instrument crafted with care and precision. This series allows for a number of customizations, from color to pickguard, knobs to pickups. Models can be built with either a maple or rosewood fretboard to meet the needs of a variety of players. If this isn’t the exact Fano you are looking for, contact us to spec one out precisely to your liking!

 

What Does Ivey Think?

The Fano PX6 has become a shop favorite for us. We love the 24.75" scale length and how it works so well with the Fano P-90 pickups. We've also really enjoyed Fiesta Red as of late, which looks stellar on this guitar with its tortoiseshell pickguard and cream pickup covers. This guitar in particular has a lush dark rosewood fretboard with some natural deep red streaks that look awesome next to the finish color. This really is a good one.

For those not accustomed to the Fano P-90s, you'll enjoy their balanced EQ and medium output, which covers a lot of musical variation. In this guitar, the bridge sounds have a little more growl and attitude. The upper midrange cuts nicely with a little bit of "sting" to the notes through a high-gain amp and a lower mid chunk that sounds great for palm-muted rhythm parts. This pickup does clean up well whether you're working the volume on a single-channel dirty amp or plugged straight into a Fender.

In the neck position you'll get the string definition you love in a Strat neck, but with the inherently warm compression of the P-90. You also get a little spongier attack due to the 24.75" scale length. With a touch of overdrive it nails the intro tones from Coldplay's "Adventure of a Lifetime." This position sounds big and yet breathes very musically as you change from strumming to fingerpicking and anything else in between.

 

How Does It Play?

The PX6 neck profile is a nice 50’s round C that starts with a moderate depth and really fills out the hand as you arrive at the upper frets. As usual, the fretwork on the guitar is impeccable. The string action is barely a hair over 4/64” on the low E string at the 12th fret, and under 4/64” on the high E. There is no fretbuzz.
