Selling a few guitars. First up, my Frank Bros Arcade.
Gorgeous guitar - these are incredibly well put together. Utterly flawless in every way. If you haven't tried one, you should.
This is the very one:
Maple top, mahogany body and sides and Lollar Imperials. Beautiful player and sounds joyous.
Why am I selling? To buy another Frank Bros as it happens. Saw a used one in my dream colour and can't keep both, sadly.

https://imgur.com/gallery/firebird-CIMaVeRIt is glorious and mental in equal measures. A real 'wow' guitar. Looks amazing and plays like, well, like a Firebird. They're built for style rather than comfort, as you know.
Neck is a nice handful, not overly chunky.
It's a relic but it's as it was from the factory. Circa £9k new. Looking for
£5,250 (NOW TRADED).
I won't be shipping this one - collection only.
Any questions, other than 'what's your best price, mate?", let me know.
Comments
Anyone into high end guitars who hasn’t tried a Frank owes it to themselves to do so. Impeccable build quality without feeling sterile or stale.
Ivison Dakota added.
It's honestly one of the best guitars I've played, but the guitars I was trying to sell have not had the interest so I told Stephen to get it back listed.
Whoever buys it will not be disappointed, it is ridiculously good!
I really like the name Frank Brothers ......it's sort of like a mix between The Sopranos and Kray brothers ....I bet if that guitar could talk it would sound like Joe Pesci or the Panda that liked "Fwoxes Bisquits "............very Noo Yoik

Been asked about postage. Collection from Harrogate is preferred (or I can drive an hour or so to meet) but I do have boxes and can wrap securely if you want to arrange shipping at your own risk.
