Published on 03/26/13 at 10:06The handle is flat key, join the body at the 12th fret.
Floating bridge not adjustable in height (not original on mine, but the height adjustment seems superfluous on this kind of guitars, strings are often a bit too far from the handle).
Presence of a "truss-rod", but I wonder if it was necessary: this guitar is 60 years old and a handle perfectly straight. Like all my Framus elsewhere.
UTILIZATION
This guitar naturally reproduces the sound a bit cavernous old Blues records.
Easy-to-end handle for solos too complicated or too fast.
At the top of the handle on mine, I suffer too much action, impossible to solve - except to put an easel lower.
The volume is probably insufficient for group play.
SOUNDS
The sound suits the Blues played alone.
For other styles, or in other circumstances, in my opinion it will not fit.
OVERALL OPINION
Regarding the Acqusition, it is quite popular with fans of the brand, but it is limited to them. Interesting if we find one in good condition and low price, which is possible.
