1964 Customized Framus Strato 5/155


This Framus "Atlanta" isn't a regular Framus model, but a custom job on a 1964 Strato 5/155 (like the one you can see down there; early Framus naming can be a little bit tricky since both Strato and 5/155 have been used for different models, and this for Germany since in the US Strato was replaced by Apollo).

Pickups,electronics and pickguard have been replaced and the guitar (poorly) refinished in black, but they kept the coolest part, the big German 1960s vibrato! No idea where the Atlanta logo come from...
