grandad Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Have you given some thought to another project? 1 Quote
Newfoundfreedom Posted January 21, 2019 Author Posted January 21, 2019 Looks interesting though don't you think? Apparently Framus is now part of Warwick. I think I'd be really tempted if I was in the UK. Unfortunately it looks like shipping is a no go. Quote

TheGreek Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Sale seems to have ended with a price of £250 - not clear if it sold... Quote

fleabag Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 Indeedy. Framus - good enough for Bill Wyman Quote
FinnDave Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 My first decent bass was a Framus Jazz bass copy, I still miss it! 1 Quote
Newfoundfreedom Posted January 23, 2019 Author Posted January 23, 2019 I reckon someone got a bargain there at £250. Quote

Unfortunately it looks like shipping is a no go. Just FYI, Framus was founded by Hans Peter Wilfer's father, Fred Wilfer. It ran from 1946 - late 70s. Apparently when Warwick moved to Markneukirchen is around the time they revived Framus. 1 Quote

I think Warwick grew out of Framus; Framus was originally by the father and then the son set up Warwick. EDIT: Doh! should've read the entire thread before posting...
