Shellac
The raw material for shellac is obtained from the secretion of the Asian lac insect that deposits it on the bark of certain
trees after consuming its sap. This residue then undergoes a purifying process that transforms it into shellac. It is thin-
ned in alcohol and later applied on the instrument in several coatings, a process used also on violins and expensive fur-
niture called “French polishing”. The AZ-10 model offers this finish in 2 different colors, amber and vintage violin. The
neck is left untreated as it is with classical instruments.
Metal Flake
This is a variation of the high-polish finish where metal flakes are mixed with the lacquer creating a shimmering and
glistening Disco effect. After applying a primer the metal flakes are then added and coated with a high-polish clear lac-
quer. If you want to literally “shine” on stage then this finish is the perfect choice for you.
Airbrush (Graphic)
Everything is possible with this surface treatment; the boundaries are set by your own imagination. It doesn’t matter if
you like single motifs or an entire piece of art, because you will be working with one of the most renowned airbrushers
and your wishes will come true in a unique masterpiece.
Sandblasted finish
Woods like swamp ash have more of a coarse texture and when treated with a sandblasting technique they are purified
in totally different form. This type of finish has an outcome that depends entirely on the different hardness degrees of
the wood’s internal rings. Pressure and friction created with the sandblasting tool will naturally erode the wood at the
softer spots; this will create small dents, molds and depressions in the wood’s surface resembling a relief. This treated
surface then receives a natural oil finish, but the possibility for other relief colors is also available under the colored oil
finish offerings.
Chrome Tone (CT)
Chrome is a surface that awakens emotions in most people, is an absolute eye catcher on stage, and is therefore seen
more and more as a guitar finish option. Unfortunately the connection between chrome and wood is a rather frail one.
Most chromed wood surfaces have low durability and the appearance of stains and dark spots is pretty quick and so-
metimes in the worst-case scenario the chrome peels or brakes off. But research continues and Framus contacted a com-
pany that specializes in galvanic connections and together with our engineers we solved the problem. The magic word
is subsurface work: Only a very flat surface will bind together with chrome for a long time. The instruments have to be
prepared accordingly; a special lacquer and polishing quite a few times in-between are all part of the procedure. And
that is all we’re giving away …
We don’t concentrate only on classic silver chrome surfaces; we also offer additional chrome colors namely silver, gold,
black, blue and red. Aside from this wide and unconventional array of colors, Framus also offers two different surface
treatments, one being the already known glassy option and the other one not less glassy and mirroring, but optically hea-
vily textured therefore called “chrome riffle”.
The following table shows the available finishes on the standard Framus models:

- Ovankgol neck with tiger stripe ebony fingerboard p.8
- Ovangkol neck with rosewood fingerboard p.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 p.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 p.8

- English 8 p.8
- 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 p.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 p.9
- English 9 p.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 p.9
- 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 p.9
