Fano is a fairly popular brand of relic guitar, because they make some really high quality instruments. One of their Alt de Facto line, the JM6 shares much of the high quality and attention to detail that other Alt de Facto instruments have. However, it does have a few extra options and extras that set it apart from the others.
The Alt de Facto JM6 features three body choices: alder, swamp ash, or mahogany. All have front and back contours and use aged nickel hardware. The neck comes in either maple or mahogany, while the fingerboard is done in rosewood or maple. The guitar uses 21 frets and 6105 fretwire. The tuners are Gotoh Kluson, and it has a TonePros T-O-M stoptail. The guitar has a 3-way toggle, volume, and tonestyler controls. All of this is wrapped up in a distressed nitrocellulose lacquer finish that really makes the guitar look old.
As with all Fano products, you’ve got some other options. For example, you can get the JM6 with a Korina body or neck if you choose, or go with aged gold hardware. Custom paint colors are also available, as is a Brazilian rosewood fingerboard. You can discuss all of your options with a Fano dealer before you make your final purchase.
Like all of Fano’s Alt de Facto series of relic guitars, the PX6 harkens back to some of those classic guitars made during the middle of the 20th century. 
They use many of the traditional styles, parts, and are all distressed to look just like they’ve been around for decades. Of course, they also feature some modern guitar parts and concepts like a compound radius fingerboard and Gotoh hardware. Each Fano guitar is individually handcrafted, so even if someone else has the same model as you do, the two guitars will be slightly different. Every Fano PX6 is unique.
The PX6 features several different body options, including korina, alder, swamp ash, and mahogany. You also get to select from korina, maple, or mahogany for the neck. The fingerboard can be done in rosewood, maple, or Brazilian rosewood. The guitar features 22 frets and uses 6105 fretwire. The back shape is done in a late 50’s round style. The relic guitar features aged nickel hardware, Gotoh Kluson tuners, and custom Fralin P-90s. It has a three-way toggle, volume, and tone controls. The entire guitar is done in a distressed nitrocellulose lacquier to make it appear aged and worn. You can actually pick your own custom pain colors if you order one of the PX6’s from Fano, plus there are some other options such as aged gold hardware and Lollar firebird pickups for you to select from.
The Fano Alt de Facto RB6 is one of Fano’s great Alt de Facto line. This series is one that really shows off Fano’s dedication to creating amazing looking relic guitars. 
A classic German instrument, the RB6 is one incredibly smooth guitar and plays like nothing else. Its body is done in an alder, swamp ash, or a mahogany, and it features a great German carved top. The neck comes in mahogany or maple, and the fingerboard is available in rosewood or maple. The entire guitar is then done in a distressed nitrocellulose lacquer that adds to the relic look, making it look like the instrument has been played for years when really it’s brand new. Read more
