Fernandes Ravelle 2006 Translucent Gold

Hello,

You're looking at a fantastic Fernandes Ravelle JPC-S !

The JPC-S (JPC for Japan Premium Custom) was the top-of-the-line model made by Fernandes Custom Shop in 2006. Only about 50 of those were made,  and only a few of them were shipped outside Japan. This is basically a custom shop version of their well known Les-Paul-Like guitar, the "Ravelle". The guitar is equipped with the famous Fernandes sustainer pickup (allowing infinite sustain to obtain those wonderful Smashing Pumpkins / U2 feedback tones!) and I upgraded the other pickup with a Gibson burstbucker. The overall tone of the guitar is very Gibson-ish, with the extra sustainer touch. Perfect for indie / alternative rock, ambiance, hard rock, heavy...

Here are the specs:

• Body Top　: Flame Maple (15mm)
• Body Back : Honduras Mahogany (45mm)
• Neck : Mahogany (Set Neck)
• Fingerboard : Ebony (22Frets, 350R)
• Scale Length : 628mm (Medium)

Hardware is gotoh. The lacquer is very thin and really looks like a nice nitrocellulose lacquer, however I don't have this exact information so I can't confirm anything.

The action is pretty low, setting is perfect (no buzz-fret)

This guitar is a player guitar, I used it on several live concerts, so it has minor scratches or bumps on the back (belt, etc...). Difficult to render in pictures, but don't worry these are not a big deal.

The guitar is in pretty good condition, I would give it a 8/10. All scratches or bumps are on the back, the body top is in mint condition (see pictures).

The original Fernandes case is included.

I ship internationally with UPS + insurance. Guitar will be packed into her case and fully protected by a package with plastic bubbles (a lot.)

I'm living in European Union, so please be aware that there might be extra fees when the guitar will arrive (duty fees, customs, etc...);

You can calculate those fees on different websites.

If you have any question or need to see additional pictures of the guitar, please feel free to contact me.

Youtube link is not me: it's actually the previous owner of the guitar.
