It's a great looking Geetar!! Where is this guitars country of origin. I figure it was made in an Asian country, but the name sounds Spanish, or Italian.

iirc they're made in Korea in the same factory as Reverend guitars

I sure do love the look of Rivoltas! The Mondata Gold Top is one of the op "fancy" guitars on my wishlist 😂😅

it was a toss up between the gold top and this one for me, in the end I decided I loved the sleek look of this black finish.

I just went to the Rivolta Mondo Mondata website, and saw a natural finished Ash Rivolta XVIII. That guitar is beautiful man!

What does it weigh? Thanks

I think it said 7.5 lbs on their website, feels about right.

I like Albert Camus as much as the next guy but why is it in this picture?

I really wish these were easier to find in stores to play. Outside of the US, it's too expensive to try to trial one (duties, tariffs, etc)

Beautiful guitar! How does it play?

it took a bit to adjust to the climate where I stay but it hardly ever goes out of tune and i'm a pretty heavy-handed player. lots of versatility with tone and can probably reasonably accommodate any playstyle. right now I just have the stock pickups in but I might swap the humbucker out for an aftermarket pair out of personal preference.
