This is not the first Framus Strato to be featured here on Guitarz. We've seen it here, here, and here.
But I thought that this was such a great looking example of the model that we could have another look at this great German Jazzmaster inspired guitar.
It has a battery operated on-board pre-amp. I feel that that's pretty rare for guitars from the mid 1960s
This is also the first time I've seen one with the toggle arm on the volume knob. Evidentially it's spring loaded volume knob for an "organ effect". I'm guessing for pull and release swells.
Has anyone used one of these? Am I right?
Currently listed at $500, and so close to home it's hard not to get in the car and pick it up first thing in the morning

- Unidentified And Probably Modified Framus
guitarz.blogspot.com I can see that this old guitar is a Framus - it has the Strato shape and the F logo on the stoptail, but I cannot identify it - its pickguard has a strangely contoured shape - not that this is unusual in vintage Framus models - but...
