Title: Oh my frickin gas... FRAMUS
Post by: ztikmaen on October 19, 2011, 04:51:37 AM
Just stumbled across this... Now Reverend is not *completely* the axe for me :O
Hollow construction with smaller size... Unique single coils... Unique design. Reminds me of a German Gretsch

Double Cut

Yep. Back to the fifties/sixties. The Pantera, Renegade etc are contemporary guitars with some classic elements, all loades with Duncans.

They look way more vintage then Reverends. Very sweet though. I like the singlecut most.

Wow, looks like an instant hit with the BKP Forumites
They look more European rather than American in design. Reminds me of Brian May's guitar

Yeah  :) Brian's guitars was homemade. I think they have something of the old Framusses and Höfners.

Out of bike parts and fireplace wood if I remember correctly haha
Well this guitar seems really cool, but do you think it might just be a novelty thing?
