{"product_id":"framus-golden-strato","title":"Framus Golden Strato","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Framus Golden Strato is a distinctive German solidbody guitar from the 1960s, with three single-coil pickups, a vibrato and an elaborate control layout. Framus offered several versions of its Strato de Luxe range, with different pickup and electronics configurations. The three-pickup models are particularly interesting because each pickup has its own switch and tone control, rather than relying on a conventional three- or five-way selector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe controls on this example offer plenty to explore. Each pickup has an individual on\/off switch and tone control, alongside a master volume and a separate volume control for the middle pickup. The middle-pickup switch also appears to disable the other pickups. There is a switch to change the neck pickup's tone circuit, and another operates a phase function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's an unusual arrangement compared with a conventional Stratocaster, giving you more direct control over the individual pickups and their tonal response. Combined with the vibrato, it makes for a guitar with plenty of options to explore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example is in good condition, with the usual wear for a guitar of its age. The bridge and one control knob are replacements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Framus Golden Strato\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEra: 1960s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Solidbody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard: Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickups: 3 single-coils with gold-coloured covers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup switching: Individual on\/off switches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls: Master volume, separate middle-pickup volume and individual pickup tone controls, neck-pickup tone switch and phase switch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVibrato: Original vibrato system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Good, with age-related wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModifications: Replacement bridge and one control knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"font-size: 80%; font-weight: bold; list-style: none; cursor: pointer;\"\u003eManufacturer Information ▾\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 80%;\"\u003eVintage guitar, manufacturer no longer in business\u003cbr\u003eSafety information: No known safety warnings.
