- Neck woods 8
- Ovangkol and maple rosewood and tiger stripe ebony are the basis for our neck construction depending on the model any 2 of these 4 types of woods will be used which gives us the following combinations a table at the end of this chap ter describes the possibilities for each model 8
- Ovangkol is a west african hardwood with the best tonal properties high density allows for stability and sound quality sustain and warmth shapes its character the outstanding sound properties of tiger stripe ebony are a result of its ex treme hardness and stiffness it gives the instrument a quick response and a finely illuminated sound picture over the whole frequency spectrum 8
- Ovangkol neck with rosewood fingerboard 8
- Ovankgol neck with tiger stripe ebony fingerboard 8
- Rosewood is basically the most used wood for fingerboards period it differs from ebony in its density and hardness 8
- A maple neck has a direct pithy open sound in short it sounds like a big bang reason enough to like it and reason enough to develop guitars that do just that framus is offering models with a one piece maple neck or a maple neck with a maple fingerboard the framus custom shop also offers the option of a guitar with a one piece neck among many other possibilities that will make your instrument stand out 9
- Although rosewood is included in the hardwood category it is less dense more porous and a tad softer than tiger stripe ebony the resulting tone is obviously warmer but never sounds sharp this combination underscores the naturally ho nest character of the framus guitars that have the additional pro denomination in their model names 9
- English 9 9
- Framus pays also tribute to this tradition especially when it serves the purpose of enhancing the properties of the in strument this combination is found on guitars that need that special bite and high frequency cut through 9
- It is a proven combination framus guitars that fall into the semi acoustic and full resonance categories benefit the most from a maple neck with a glued on tiger stripe ebony fingerboard combination the already full sounding guitars get an additional boost in attack and high frequencies that are necessary for a balanced sound picture the ebony fingerboard clearly underscores the tonal attributes and the high standard of these instruments 9

- Good wood is important as well as a solid construction and a sound design but this means nothing if it isn t comple mented with high quality components pickups are responsible for the sound of the instrument precision is an impor tant point that reflects quality too nut bridge construction and tuning machines are only going to last if they are built thoroughly and meticulously with high quality materials not for nothing are they responsible for good tuning framus uses the best components only from the best manufacturers and also its own which bear the framus label 14

- Tuning machines 17
- Tuning machines are an important component of the guitar and are not to be neglected framus is able to offer two ex clusive machine heads of its own all pro models as well as the monterrey come with smooth running oil based tu ning machines allow problem free use of a vibrato system the streetwalker and morrigan models have these machine heads plus a locking nut that comes with the floyd rose vibrato system all custom models as well as the ak 1974 the manhattan and the az 10 have framus locking tuners with this type of machine the strings are not wound anymore but fed through a hole at the machine head and locked with a tightening screw if done correctly the string will be in tune after about half a turn having less turns means less slippage guitars with locking tuners stay much better in tune especially after changing strings which also becomes a quicker and less time consuming procedure the framus cus tom shop also offers schaller and sperzel locking tuners on request 17

- Original floyd rose vibrato 39
- The bigsby vibrato is made of aluminum is mounted onto the body and comes with a string tension bar which avoids string noise when the vibrato is used the ball end of the string is placed on its corresponding axle pin the string ten sion bar has 3 different settings the string height adjustment is done at the tune o matic bridge with the two thumbs crews and the intonation is adjusted with the saddle screws the lateral positioning of the bridge can be changed with two side screws but first the locknuts have to be loosened and after the adjustment retightened 39
- The original floyd rose vibrato works basically like a framus floyd rose system the main difference is in the way you put on the strings they are tightly locked at the saddle between the little insert block and the string lock screw to ac complish this the ball end of the string has to be cut 39
