Introduction
First of all we would like to thank you for choosing your new Framus instrument. With Framus guitars you will find a high
level of quality workmanship and selected components combined into one amazing and timeless instrument that will pro-
vide you as a musician with outstanding expression power. Meticulous quality controls as well as a German manufac-
turing site create the basis to guarantee a high and consistent quality standard for your new Framus guitar. There is also
a little involvement on your side in terms of wood and hardware, so keep reading if you want to give your guitar the best
look possible. We will inform you then about instrument care and available setup configurations since it’s not only the
instrument that wants to feel good,
Philosophy
Since Framus (short for “Fränkischen Musikinstrumentenerzeugung Fred Wilfer K.G.“) was first founded in 1946 a lot has
happened. As a forerunner of the art of building guitars, Framus is since developing its own concepts as well as techni-
cal innovations and designs that enrich the guitar world, as we know it. Our efforts are geared towards making the in-
dividual wishes of each musician a reality. The end result is a broad assortment of guitars that allows the interested artist
to create his music. We know that the requirements to manufacture instruments that as a brand feel themselves at
home in many styles, are definitely high. But we proudly take the challenge. If you just take a look at the models that we
call standard, you can find your instrument regardless of the style you play, be it smoking blues, glittering funk, hard rock,
or jazz… once more striving for the top.
Standard models
Variety of stylistic loyalty; a wide product assortment doesn’t preclude either of them. It doesn’t matter if you’re a Top-
40 musician that plays a variety of different styles in each set in spite of his personal musical preferences, or if you’re
devotee to a specific style, Framus has the right choice for you. You expect standard guitars to be matured and optimi-
zed, and to have a wide range of models that go from intelligently outfitted with up to 16 different sound possibilities to
stylistically purebred guitars. We take no compromises in the selection and quality of woods, workmanship, and the uti-
lized components. What you’re getting is a German-manufactured, high quality, high value musical instrument with a wide
array of colors and a left-handed option with no additional cost.
Custom Shop
Who doesn’t want that special something, that what you call your own, what is not seen as an object, but that what is
embodied in it: your own ideas, so personal and unique like the music that will be played with that special custom-
made instrument. Being able to offer this to any interested musicians is what the Framus designers and product spe-
cialists set as their mission; and the end result is an unbelievable amount of custom shop options to build that dream
instrument, the one you always imagined… unique and without compromise. If that wish has never been fulfilled, it is
time to pay a visit to our Framus homepage or to ask one of our product specialists. Why don’t you take a look at
