Framus Panthera Studio Custom FS/FT

For sale Framus Panthera Studio Custom £1200

I’ve owned this guitar for over 10 years and has easily been one of the finest guitars in my collection. The build quality is outstanding and easily competes with USA PRS, Fender, Gibson and other high quality builders such as Suhr and Tom Anderson. 

The guitar itself is a workhouse and studio machine. The two Seymour Duncan humbuckers are perfect for rock, metal and other contemporary styles such as jazz and blues. And the middle single coil provides authentic strat and tele esque tones. The middle pickup is controlled via a volume control so you’re able to blend it in with your humbucker and in addition to this, both humbuckers can be coil tapped.

If you’re interested, you are more than welcome to come and try it out. In terms of trades, I’m interested in singlecut guitars but particularly USA PRS’s. Love the custom 22, MIras and 245s.
