Following up on the success of the Rivolta Guitars Combinata comes the latest addition to the family: The Mondata. The tradition of offering fresh takes on classic Dennis Fano designs continues with this offset design, incorporating elements of the Fano JM6 and the classic non-reverse Firebird.  

Like the Combinata, the Mondata features a double-bound chambered mahogany body with a bound neck and vintage Pearloid block inlays.  

You can expect a punchy and clear tone from the Firebird pickups, think 'humbuckers that sound like FAT single coils' and you're there. If versatility is your thing, the two-switch configuration gives you every possible pickup combination. 

Mondata Switching System

The Rivolta Mondata features a first for Dennis Fano: it's his first design to incorporate a double-switching system, including a selector switch for the bridge and neck pickups, and a mode switch. The mode of the switch has 3 positions: 

  • "Standard" (toggle down: no middle pickup, only bridge and/or neck pickup, selected via upper toggle).
  • "Combo" (toggle in the middle: middle pickup + bridge and/or neck pickup, selected via upper toggle).
  • "Override" (toggle up middle pickup only, upper toggle bypassed).
