Mate, wait till you play these things! Dennis Fano is one of life's wizards.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Image Found where Fano gets his guitar bodies. Only $100 and they're exactly the same.

Just get a Mex strat neck and bolt it on to the above and bingo everyone's drooling over it.

Or remove the neck from the Fano and attach the head of a dead animal onto the body and recreational hunters will be thrilled.

Win/win!

It’s a Fralin hot Tele. Sounds great and very versatile with use of tone and volume controls. With a parametric EQ (Eventide H90) it kicks arse like a humbucker.

It is actually Swamp Ash. Makes it incredibly lightweight.

This one is tempered pine and is even lighter at 6lb 3oz (2.8kg). Sounds identical. Looks fabulous!
