what do you think of this guitar?

Heres a pic of the new Framus "Streetwalker", its more metal then any guitar they have ever made which I think is a good thing. They are sending me one this week to try out, ill review it and let you know how it plays.

Looks incredibly badass to me. Almost like 2/3 Explorer 1/3 Mockingbird.

Yes, im endorsed but right now im just using Framus amps and cabs with Caparison guitars. Framus want me to try out the guitars and see if i would like to use them too. I guess well see, I have yet to play a Framus guitar.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Needs more of a less traditional headstock. Eh. See how it plays, I guess. I'd stick with the caparision you've got though. Those guitars of yours make me jealous.

It's pretty cool for a Framus but I prefer the traditional explorer shape.

It looks a litle bit like the hamer scarab.
I like morwe the more clasiical framus Diablo custom, but in another colour that standard one.

Can you use the guitar you want but in another colour and with another specifications. I mean , for example, the diablo custom, gloss black, with your band logo inlays.????
Or they must be the stndard ones????

Endorsees get guitars at a low discounted price. In the case of JohnH, its about 60-70% off the sticker price. As for custom models, I can imagine he'd still have to buy it for a discount of the normal custom price, say, 60% off 3,000, and you've got $1,200. I don't know exactly how it works. Never being, and never GOING to be endorsed myself, I wouldn't know...

It all different depending on the size of the company and what type of endorsement deal you got. Most start you out with 2 or 3 free (stock models) and after that they are at cost (about 60% to 70% off) As far as custom shop goes you get them at the same discount for the most part.
