Rivolta Mondata

Rivolta guitars are the latest creation from acclaimed guitar builder and designer Dennis Fano, owner of Novo Guitars and the founder of Fano Guitars. Dennis has always wanted to make his guitars accessible to as many players as possible, and partnering with Mike Robinson of Eastwood Guitars was the perfect solution.

​The Rivolta models feature the best elements of Dennis Fano's well-known designs, and utilize Eastwood’s established production facilities and worldwide distribution network.

Taking his original inspiration from early JM style guitars, Dennis Fano went on to develop his renowned JM6 series guitars in 2006. The MONDATA is the latest re-imagining of this design by Dennis Fano and fuses the JM styling with a raised center block and 3 x 'Fumante' mini-humbucker pickups.  The MONDATA incorporates features from the Rivolta COMBINATA such as a full German carve, double bound top, chambered mahogany body, Rivolta 3-aside peg-head and full width block inlaid fingerboard. The MONDATA XVIII

DESCRIPTION

Following up on the success of the Combinata comes the latest addition to the family: The Mondata XVIII. 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 bound neck and vintage pearloid block inlays. This DLX version also includes a B-50 Bigsby.

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.
