Brand: FRAMUS (Germany)
Model: 5 / 130 - HOLLYWOOD ELEKTRA
Microphone: 1 x sliding type P90.
Controls: Volume / Tone.
Color: Red Blend / Gold.
Dates: 1960.
Special features: Bigsby Tremolo type.
UTILIZATION
The neck is rather thin and driver, allowing for rapid movement on the handle.
The body has a notch double and treble (last frets down the neck) that no longer accessible.
In weight is alluscinant! This guitar must be one of the world's lightest in its class. Indeed, the thickness of the body is about 3cm and the guitar is hollow.
Slide the microphone provides a wide range of sound.
SOUNDS
In the neck position, the microphone type P90 offers very low round with a very hot. In the middle position, the sound is very rock n 'roll and in the bridge position, the sound is sharp and snapping (on cool solos). Perfect for chunks of rock and blues with a small tube amp like the AC30 ... Remember The Who!
OVERALL OPINION
Very nice vintage instrument. The look, the 60's. Everything is there. Model relatively rare today. This guitar still coat the argus 1300 Euros. But if you have the chance to see one go, do not miss the opportunity to buy it.
