Favino Register and Production numbers

This list originally compiled by John Friedrichs and now maintained by me. Please email me a photo of your guitar at [email protected]. I can accept photograph attachments at that email as long as the email is no larger than 5MB. If you send me a photo I can add your guitar to the gallery. If you do not have a photo of your guitar then I can add it to this registration page without a picture if you send at least a few details about the instrument. I can also keep your identity private if you like.
