Framus AK1974 custom cherry sunburst

Una lunga tradizione fatta di qualita’ senza compromessi,
e’ la nostra storia europea,
racchiusa in modelli che “profumano” di legno
con le migliori elettroniche
e il lavoro dei maestri liutai.

The Framus flagship guitar, the AK 1974, combines a semi-hollow body with a neck-through design. The resulting cutaway and neck shaping allows for extremely comfortable access to the upper 24th fret. It also features a warm and organic sounding carved Flamed Maple top with F-holes and a bottom of the same material, as well as a Sycamore neck that provides incredible sustain. The awesome sounding pickups are ’59 Seymour Duncans with Alnico V magnet with 7 Ohms resistance controlled with a unique 6-way selector switch that delivers many different combinations for Jazz and Blues-Rock sounds. This guitar is the sum of premium hand-selected material, high quality components and a unique construction design that elevates it above the rest.
