Framus golden Strato de Luxe 5/168-54gl – 1967 German Vintage electric guitar / Gitarre

This is the famous and rare "Strato de luxe gl" Modell by the german luthier Framus. Framus produced fine quality instruments during the golden age of german guitars in the 1950s to 1980s. Their guitars are known worldwide for their excellent quality and unique designs. The Modell "Strato de luxe" is one of their rarest and most beloved electric guitars by fans. This is one of the more "extravagant" variants of the strato de luxe. There where variants with less switches and knobs and less possibilitys to customize the sound. There where also silver variants of the guitar, but the golden one is way more rare.

This guitar was manifactured in 1967. It is plated with two chromed metalplates and a sunburst finish. It also has a fully organ-lever wich was built in on some versions.

On the blurred image, i just wanted to show how clean the chromed plates are. As you can see, the reflections are super clear and the plate is clean!

The guitar is in very good condition for its age. The laquer has a few damaged spots, as you can see in the pictures, but its really not that much. The two metalplates are free from bigger scratches or dents and are super clean! The whole electronic is working and all the switches and potis dom, what they should. All 3 pickups produce a lound and clear sound too. The tuners aren't rusted or dried up and are at full function. The frets where polished, the fretboard got oiled and the strings are new too!

The guitar can be played immediatly.

If you have any questions left, or if you need more pictures, feel free to ask :-)

About shipping:

I ship worldwide with DHL and with the DHL-shipping insurance wich goes up to 500€. I am not going to lie to you or blandish a possible transport risk like some other people do. International shipping can be dangerous and packages are sometimes treated roughly. If you however choose to have an international shipment, I will do my absolute best to protect the guitar. I have collected a lot of experience in the past on how to ship a guitar securely. I will take photos of the packaging and the exact condition of the guitar right before I ship it. You should know, that after shipping the guitar and entering the shipping number, I am not responsible for anything anymore and my job is done. But I will gladly back you up with the insurance case with said photos and exact details in the rare case anything goes wrong. The standart insurance I ship all guitars with is up to 500€. If you want a higher insurance, you can get that, just ask me first. Please note, that international shipping can sometimes take very long, on average 2 weeks for EU shipping and 1 month for intercontinental shipping, but it can take up to 3 times that time in some very rare cases.

Legal:

Taxation after UStG §25a. I usually take back everything you buy from me within 14 days after the arrival of the package. The conditions are, that everything is in the original condition I shipped it in and the shipping costs are carryed by the buyer.
