anyone ever try one of these? I know Mark Morton uses a Framus Panthera and Will Adler uses a Framus Diablo (both from Lamb of God BTW), but has anyone had any experience with them?

I think Mark plays a jackson swee tone and rhoads now. I know he used to, I really like Willie's Framus

Re: Framus guitars
I was going to buy one a while ago but I couldn't get one as they didn't have an importer in Finland. They're supposed to be very high quality german made axes with a bit of personal design choices. I'd still love to have one, they're quite affordable too here.

Re: Framus guitars
Are these the same Framus guitars that Rik Emmet from Triumph used to play? He got his from Jan Akkerman(Focus) and I was just wondering if it's the same company since it's been so long. Rik did get signed with Yamaha though later on in Triumph but he used to play that Framus for a while. J/W if anybody knew.

i played this one.
whole guitar is oil finished, has stock JB and '59 pickups, and i loved it. i nearly bought it too, but i wasnt really happy with the neck shape
amazing guitars and not that pricy either (but that might be cos theyre made in germany)

Re: Framus guitars
That was the model I was interested in too. Those are really cheap here, you can get them for less than a fender standard american strat I think.

I've played a Diablo Custom. Can't say I dug it that much. The neck was sticky, and the whole guitar just felt bland.

Re: Framus guitars
I own two of them:
An old archtop which I will sell as soon as it is restaurated. It is like most vintage Framus very poor quality.
My long time favourite is my Framus Renegade Pro (1st version from early 90's): Tele-style body, Wilkinson Trem and 4 (!!!!) Seymour-Duncans: SSL1 neck, SSL1 middle, SSL3 bridge + HotRails Bridge
Great neck, but some there is one bad mistakes in workmanship, thus I will probably also sell it. My Strat Elite is replaces it for versatility.
In general Framus are great guitars, very high quality parts, high quality workmanship and great design. Try to get one used as it does not have a high resale value.
