Framus Mayfield Pro Guitar

This is a 2nd thinline guitar i bought, the first one is a Yamaha SA2000, but trade it long time ago (a bit regret), the 2nd one is this Framus Mayfield pro (a small size copy of the Gibson ES335), i like this guitar very much, first of all, the size just fit me right, the SA2000 (same size as the ES335) is too big for me, just like hanging a coffee table on me, the body is a very nice looking tiger stripe maple, with rosewood fretboard, 2 SD humbuckers, sounds very clean, warm and meaty, its a all-round guitar that you can play from Joe Pass to AC/DC,
this guitar has hanging in a guitar shop for 3 years and nobody want to touch it, until the day i found her....
this is truely a beauty, a versatile guitar, although Framus is not a famous brand, but the quality of the this German workshop is excellent (Wood, hardware, handcraft, design...) this company is a sub of Warwick.
