Framus - Strat Deluxe - - Electric guitar - Germany - 1964

FRAMUS STRAT DELUXE Sunburst around 1964.
A very rare guitar, a collectible piece and above all it sounds great!
Mid-1960s, three pickups, completely original, expect for the tremolo arm, many switches for various tonal possibilities.
Aesthetically in good condition, with signs of aging, of course.
Electronics in good condition, pickups excellent, hardware stable, neck OK, frets in quite good condition.
The neck is particularly pleasant to play. It has a harmonious, deep, and warm sound. I would call it vintage surf rock! A guitar of excellent quality that marked its era.
The guitar has an attractive look and a tonal quality that approaches the Strats of the era.
