Framus Earl Slick Mastergrade Guitar
Exceptional Framus Masterbuilt Custom Shop Earl Slick finished in Satin Vintage Sunburst. Built in Germany at the Framus Custom Shop in Markneukirchen, this instrument represents Framus’ highest tier of craftsmanship — handcrafted at the Masterbuilt level with a highly individualized approach to construction and finishing.
Unlike the standard production Earl Slick models, this example features a premium set-neck construction paired with a lightweight swamp ash body, resulting in exceptional resonance, sustain, and overall balance. The satin finish and aged hardware give the instrument a distinctly broken-in, old-world character while maintaining a refined modern feel.
Loaded with a pair of Seymour Duncan Custom Humbuckers, this guitar comfortably covers everything from articulate cleans and edge-of-breakup tones to heavier modern gain structures. The TonePros wraparound bridge and Schaller locking tuners provide outstanding tuning stability and intonation.
Additional appointments include a flamed maple neck, rosewood fingerboard, custom Framus dot inlays, and push/pull coil tap functionality for expanded tonal versatility. Weighing in at just 6 lbs 9 oz, this is an exceptionally lightweight and resonant example.
Included with the guitar was the original Framus heavy-duty aluminum flight case, certificate of authenticity, Framus documentation, and branded felt case cover.
A highly uncommon German Masterbuilt Framus Earl Slick with specifications and construction details rarely seen outside of private custom commissions.
