Fernandes Revolver Pro 7 Limited
My friend Ryan picked this up on eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...tem=7391907801 I'll make sure to post pictures, as well as his comments on the guitar, once it arrives. It's got EMGs and a 27" scale... Deadly-serious looking satin black finish. Pretty cool score. (Fernandes made only 36 of these, apparently? Why 36, lol?)  "Whoever did this was left-handed." -OJ Simpson |

Hmm it's a revolver w/o sustainer?! That's weird. I like the set neck, though.
 My fernandez was a bargain, but it's got a crumby trem. |

Damn $1000 for a Fernandes. I hope your friend loves the hell out of that thing. Best of luck to your buddy
 The Jackson DK7 is very similar, that one costs only $700 and you get an ebony board, made in Japan. I guess they rationalize the price by how limited it is. It's a crying shame it doesn't come with the Fernandes Sustainer too. I had a Fernandes Raven Elite as well as a Revolver Elite back in the day, and the sustainer was fucking sweet. Still I must admit it looks nice. |

$989 for a Korean guitar? Rip off. I am not saying it's not a good guitar, but if you compare it to Chris's Hellraiser for $700, I don't see the value of the Fernandes, especially since they chose to leave off the sustainer.

I saw that auction on Ebay a while back, and posted it here. Cool looking axe, but I don't think it's worth what they were charging. You get a lot more features on a Schecter for the money.
However, this does not change the fact that it looks way cool in that "blacker than Bealzubub's soul" finish.

The electronics situation would be pretty complicated with both EMGs and a sustainer, I'd think. This guitar isn't really related to the old Revolver Pro 7 w/sustainer like I have. In fact, apart from the headstock it really looks like a Schecter or LTD. I agree that the Hellraiser is a better value, though I think the price on this one is down to its status as a limited edition.
