Fernandes FST-125. was presented on 1985 catalogue.  It’s surprising that such a beautiful figured maple was used for regular product.

I bought this one from a guitar shop in Kumamoto.  The shop master said that it was within best 3 figured neck which he had ever dealt at the shop.  If now I ordered a guitar with beautiful neck like this, how much I should pay for it.

Opaque finish conceals wood grain.  It’s alder according to the catalogue, but I don’t always rely it because FST-135 which I have is obviously ash(or sen)  against the catalogue description.  Its body material is still unknown. I’m going to inspect someday.

EMG81 pickups were mounted.  Weight is 4.17kg(includes strings), heavier than light Les Pauls. (Updated 2016.8.21)
