2012 FANO Retrosphear Mars Red
2012 FANO Retrosphear Mars Red
The aluminum/acrylic construction not only makes the Retrosphere unique from an aesthetic standpoint but also produces a massive amount of sustain and tone. Pairing this unique construction with the specially wound Lollar P-90 Special pickups produces a tone that is warm yet still has enough twang and bite to cut through the mix. The twin pickup switches allow for standard on/off operation, as well as "out of phase" combinations.
