Description

Edit description

No fancy binding or inlays, no switches, no trem arm...no problem. This is the Combinata I., stripped and ready to rip!

This bare-bones version of the classic Combinata gives you all that's necessary to get the job done with its single "Novanta" P90 pickup in the bridge position, C+ neck profile and 24 frets across a 25" scale.

The Combinata JR shares the same silhouette and carved top as its big brother, but is perhaps something closer to the original Dennis Fano RB6 - a solid-body, not chambered model.
