Why are we so in love with the Idolmaker 5'r?
 
Is it the body of the body in a comination with the very nice Swap-Sash, the Maple Neck, the Rosewood test and the Single Coil Pickups that are really enjoying why you are going to fall in love with this guitar?
Together with icon Stevie Salas, Framus designed this contemporary model. The living legend has played together with stars such as Bootsy Collins, Rod Stewart and Justin Timberlake, but also does not turn his hand around to design a legendary guitar. We hope that this model will be iconic. Not a look-a-like but really its own shape that is really insane. And say for yourself "the head is already iconic"
 
At the first introduction you immediately feel that this model feels of course. Sometimes you grab a guitar with which you have to build a band, but with this guitar it is really coming home after the first introduction.
The Swamp-Sash Body provides a transparent feel and resonant feel. This in combination with Maple Neck and Rosewood key ensures a smile from ear to ear. Again the IFT - Invisible Fretwork Technology, place Fretwork applies. The pickups deserve to be highlighted.
 
Do you recognize that huge noise of those old pickups from a strat? We no longer do that in 2022. Each Stratocaster-pickup (STK-S4) is hand-tuned for that warm bels-like tone without the accompanying 60 cycle Brom. The Classic Stack Plus NeckPickup looks and sounds like a real Stratocaster Single coil, but without the traditional Single coil hum. It has all the sparkle and the sound that you would expect from a vintage strat pickup. Just like its neck counterpart, the Classic Stack Plus-Middenpickup offers all classic Strat-Sounds. Seymour has built the RWRP inverted wind/reverse polarity to give you that perfect interim noise of positions 2 and 4 when it is split to keep the set completely moped in all selector positions. Complete the set with the Classic Stack Plus Bridge Pickup, which is slightly hotter than the neck and middle models to offer an even balance and output between positions. In the 1980s a special soil coil was patented that actually injects negative hum into the pickup circuit and at the end of the production process finetuned Seymour every pickup for maximum noise reduction. You get all the great qualities of a classic strat pickup, and not a hum. The Classic Stack Plus Stratocaster pickups are hand-built in Santa Barbara, CA and use hand-cut Alnico 5-rod magnets and are supplied with a split 3-guide wire to give you access to real Single-Coil effect. Each pickup wax for beep -free performance.
 
We are deeply impressed by these pickups in combination with the framus. Seeing and hearing is believing and that is what we can tell at the moment about this Idolmaker 5'r.
