Then a week later I went in to see if it was still there.
The Duncan Jazz/JB really make this guitar sound great. I plugged it in and was equally impressed. The horn curve really helps it sit on your lap better than a LP horn does. The Ravelle just happen to be on display at a Music-go-Round.īalanced really well. I was looking at Hamer, Heritage, Dean, Diodati (which I own a couple of now as well), Tokai, Greco, Orville, Epi Elite, etc. I was looking for a LP type guitar to add to my arsenal.
The Ravelle Limited: Duncan custom/59 comboĪnd yes, I much prefered the Ravelles over the Korean Epis. The Ravelle Elite : Fernandes sustainer/Duncan JB combo. It comes with the Duncan Jazz/JB pickup combo. If it's a China one, that'll at least give you some indication of the Burny quality. So, if you got a chance to look over a Ravelle. Any other comparison between these guitars would be unfair IMO. I believe that the comparisons should be between a Chinese Burny vs. These days they are made in either China or Japan. I would think the Burnys would be on par. Burny's were only made in Korea for a short time and not many were made I believe. Which would include the Burnys then.Īnyways, I'm very happy with my Chinese Ravelle, as are many others here. So, I don't know if it's just the Ravelles that switched, or if all Fernandes guitars were switched. Now I know just recently there's been a batch of Ravelles made in Korea. So, it must depend on what wood they have in at the time. I have seen other Ravelles with 2 piece or 3 piece backs as well. So, I don't know what to believe anymore on these "# of pieces " debates. On my Ravelle are the same as used on the China Burnys.īut, you know what? It a great sounding guitar. I would assume the same woods, electronics and hardware With no where near the amount you see on other imports. I found the Ravelle quality to be quite good. I would most certainly assume these are coming out of the same factory. The Heritage sunburst "HSB" that can be called the color an orthodox school is prepared.Ĭontrol Two volumes, two tones, and three way picking up selectorsīut, I do own a Chinese Fernandes Ravelle. It is a spec that tickles the mania mind with the tone that the vintage style withers. Moreover, the color of the bobbin is a Zebra specification of the black and cream. Picking up is open a type that uses five alnico magnets. two ham backing picking up sticky, with invented Sastin powerful sound. The real pleasure of the Resporl type will be able. Neither looks that did frame Maple in the lamination with which feeling of luxury overflows nor a real set problem structure feel this price. Tomoyasu Hotei and copy model of Resporl standard, that cost performance that appears from BUCK-TICK and L 'Another brand of Fernandes (Fernandez) that domestic famous musician such as Arc-en-Ciel is patronizing" Burny "is high.
