Hello;

I have got a Fernandes FRB revolver PJ bass on my radar. Made in Japan 1980. 32" scale.

Is it any good?

 

The price is around 500€

Haven't played on but I've heard good things about Fernandes guitars and basses. I believe they make Burny (someone correct me?) Which make superb Gibson copies, some competing with serious money models. 

Are you able to check it out in person and get a hands on experience? 

 

Most Japanese made instruments seem to be top notch 👍🏻

I am afraid I can not test it. It is in another country

Any earlier fernandes basses are brilliant. I've had a couple. The gravity basses are stunning.
