RLG-60 ’56 Model, the gold top model of “The Revival Series”. Fernandes started to produce it in 1981 and listed on catalogue from 1982.
The name of “RLG-60” might lead misunderstanding or confusion because additional Les Paul standard model RLG-60 ’59 Model was newly on the lineup in 1984. So we need to make it clear when buying RLG-60.
This model seems to have been unpopular in those days.
It is inevitable to be affected in real time by favorite guitarists when buying guitars. Char(Hisato Takenaka) made large influence on gold top guitar sales in the late 70’s. Then guitarists who wanted gold top guitar should buy it from Greco or Navigator/ESP previously this model was released. Therefore, people who bought this model might have independent uniqueness, or were enthusiastic gold top funs who might laugh scornfully at my sloppy assumption.
Compared with Greco’s and Navigator’s, its color is biased to yellow. Tuners were changed to Grover from original Kluson type. Two pieces of mahogany were put together at near the control cavity. 3.92kg(includes strings). (Updated 2016.8.20)
