Fernandes?

Post by The Scarecrow »

Anyone familiar with these? Specifically the Dragonfly?
Looking at one, and not to familiar, but they seem well kitted for the price.

I have a Ravelle Deluxe and it's a very nice guitar. It needed bigger frets to make me completely happy with it though. It has a really solid feel and a nice chunky neck (if that's your bag). The Dragonfly looks like more of a shredder guitar so it might be different in all of the above.

I climbed on the back of a giant albatross which flew through a crack in the cloud to a place where happiness reigned all year round and music played ever so loudly

Did that one come to you from me? Was a nice Tele, just small frets and I think the neck was a little on the skinny side from memory. Great build quality though :thumbup:
