What guitar is this?

anyone see that Univox U2?

Nice find ThreeString, Framus it is!

Wow, cheap price! Unfortunately, I don't have a pot to p*ss in at the moment. I'll look out for one, though. Framus weren't that bad, all things considered.

Geez ThreeString! At this rate you'll have a web page dedicated to Framus/Contessa guitars in no time! Nice one! 😈

At first, I thought someone had performed a spot of (bad) DIY on it, but this one's similar:

And from the Framus website (excellent site by the way):

Sorry if I'm posting too many links, but I'm beginning to get obsessed with these! I'll have to buy one at some point...

I could easily fall in love with this one:

Though I'd probably change the scratchplate.

Note the zero fret and the roller bar at the trem for better string angle.

Yeah, I've always loved those old Framus guitars. They had some really unique ideas put into them I think. I'd love to eventually get the thinline "Television" model, such a sexy guitar hah.

Looks like the red one we were all looking for though is the "Junior 6" model. As a side note too looks like the one Cobain had his picture taken with is the "Electrona"

So it is! The owner has subbed in a strat PU but the look of things.

Had a scan through the Framus site and the following are all the other Jazz/Jag shaped ones (well, the ones with pictures that is):

5/167 Strato de Luxe Series

5/168-52 Strato de Luxe

5/168-54gl Golden Strato de Luxe

5/170 Electrona

5/068 Strato de Luxe 12

10370 Junior de Luxe
