We were one of the first Canadian dealers for Fano guitars when Dennis Fano was making them out of Scottsdale Arizona , every guitar we received was a beauty ,with meticulous attention to quality and design . His latest line of Nova guitars does not disappoint , again the quality , feel and design are amazing . This example is a 2023 Nova Serus TC it has an aged nitro Bull Black finish over Sunburst , the pickups are OX4 Beano with aged nickel covers and Emerson paper in oil caps, the body is tempered Pine with a German carve , it has an Ebony fingerboard with a C shape compound radius neck ( 9.5 - 14) . The guitar weighs 7.3 lbs , the pickups are dynamic and open sounding and it plays like a dream ! w/non-original 335 style HSC
