Oh my frickin gas... FRAMUS
« 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

They're very different from some of the other current Framus designs, aren't they?

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

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?
