Framus Hollywood Double Cut

Buy Now: goo.gl/KMJJyk
Today, PGS Andy shows the Framus Hollywood Double Cut, which stems back to 1958. Every detail of this Hollywood DC is true to the original, with specs including a Black Rose finish and vintage Framus bridge/ tailpiece. The Hollywood Double Cut has a lightweight chambered body and a set mahogany neck with a rosewood fretboard. A wide variety of singing vocal-like midrange or crystal clear twang comes from the Framus Hollywood's vintage single coils and versatile bass/treble controls.

It's incredible how good of a guitarist Andy is. There are few people that have this level of control over their instrument. All the songs he plays.. everything perfect.

[@ledzeppelin174]

Finally a guitar thats not a mashup of fender and gibson!

[@crice6505]

sometimes i forget to listen to how good the guitar sound and listen to how good andy sounds

[@HotPocketEXE]

I am a man that loves a black cherry burst... I went so far as to refinish and epi. dot in such a manner. Love the shape, love the sound. Will keep this one in mind.

[@neilesewell]

Now, granted, Andy could make a shoebox and some elastic bands sound good but I like the fact that this guitar seems pretty unusual and has some interesting controls/tones available. This might just be my new favourite PGS demo!

[@genglemt]

I have one of these, except mine is an original vintage. It's not the most solid guitar in the world, but it's very playable and useful. It's has quite a nice character, I'm very pleased with it.

[@boynamedlen]

Andy starts playing slide, I smile. Love love love the retro 4-way switch!!

[@Jomusicjojo]

always waited for that demo, big THANKS! awesome guitar!

[@FloyDZeD]

I'm loving the sound of that neck pickup.

[@vileguile4]

Beautiful cleans!

[@WeezerFan666]

Oh my, that sounds INCREDIBLE. If only it wasn't plain black on the back, I hate when guitars do that ...

[@thenoiseking]

Wow, looks and sounds great!

[@cous357]

bravo andy you are the best !!

[@ianwlad]

awesome playing, andy!

[@JJF10101957]

Great Playing,Andy!

[@mistermullens]

Love it!

[@epivaughan]

amazing !

[@jfrizzlle]

Oh goodness this thing is perfect.

[@captainkjub]

great guitar, great review. simply clever

[@Gretschization]

I got that guitar and no it's not adjustable, but personnally I received this beauty perfectly adjusted

[@Dannyvoortwist]

Man, that guitar sounds great

[@LilJ42]

framus, the mercedes benz of guitars. If I could afford one I wouldn't need a damn demo. still great work though, pgs.

[@headwhop26]

$1000. Thats actually better than i expected

[@metelegerald]

I love it how PGS slams down nonbelievers!

[@PadraicPlaugher]

reminds me of a TEISCO!

[@djkohoficial]

FRAMUS! Finally!

[@Pickher]

awesome

[@MagMar1994]

I can't trust these reviews. I'm sure Andy could plug his guitar into a door knob and still make it sound awesome... Yet, I still want it all :)

[@Blahaba]

Awesome sliding. Really

[@jomarthegreat1]

Open D + Slide = heaven.

[@TomBrent]

hell yeah framus!

[@geordie2001]

Sounds great because of the amp and pedals. They should do it directly into an amp! No pedals.

[@ztikmaen]

Wow so unique, looks pretty small?

[@mndandy]

@ProGuitarShopDemos Agreed. Would love too!

[@mikerhd89]

@YourHomeWorkAteMyDog THANX!!!

[@peeblesj1131]

Not that he hasn't always been good, but Andy's chops have gotten SICK in the last couple years.

[@SoundandVision3]

hot guitar

[@wezzlyn]

You guys should do a video on how PGS videos are made.

[@joe5965]

I want one

[@Gretschization]

I've got it ! I've got it !!

[@acledfloyd]

@uofm97 I did not know that, thanks.

[@Nooseybear]

Awesome looking guitar. Where's it made?

[@richfiryn]

Tonetastic

[@mikerhd89]

Both guitar and player are excellent! Is it possible to inform us about what amp and pedals are used in this demo? Thanks in advance

[@peachy901]

Does anyone know the set up that is being used in this video? That sound is, to me, the 'holy grail of tone' - SO I MUST KNOW!!!!!! HALP!!!!

[@ProGuitarShopDemos]

@geordie2001 Please refer to the clean section :)

[@thunderbirdforlife]

Was that Elmore James demo-ing that guitar? Good job!

[@barbwirebats]

@ProGuitarShopDemos Pretty rocking price

[@doom668]

@Halchemist15 the song resembles Dust My Broom from ZZ Top

[@les6085]

Do the single coils have reversed polarity? Otherwise how did you remove the noise from overdriven amp?

[@acledfloyd]

@KlobberSaurus I think you mean Keith Richards. Just to clarify for others.

[@DiedrichKnickerbocker1783]

@mouloudo Are you refering to Brian May's guitar?

[@CraigSpannier]

So are the pickups lower output like vintage pickups?

[@AndreMuerteCocos]

@ChablesMan there was such video already.

[@mikerhd89]

does anyone know if this guitar is neck-heavy??

[@FERNANDOBOARETO]

AAAAAAAAAAAAA..........MAZING GUITAR....

[@s2sadewe]

Agreed; ANY piece of garbage sounds ok with overdrive/distorto. Let's hear raw acoustic sound through an amp.

[@KlobberSaurus]

@Schpudd Try tuning to dgdgbd. This is open G tuning. Popular blues tuning. Keef Richards wrote the better part of his music (after 1970) in open G.

[@thevivos]

I agree, though the comment could be less rude

[@kirroyal2127]

0:46 what's that song ? is it smell like teen spirit ?

[@Disharmonikash]

I can't believe the price of this guitar, I expected somewhere from 2000 to 3000 bucks, ha!

[@ProGuitarShopDemos]

0:35 :)

[@MotherFuzzer]

What kind of amp are you playing through?

[@aektzis91]

i bet this thing would be even cooler with a bigsby

[@jjulch]

Can't decide if its ugly or cool.... Andy always makes it biased for me since he probably could make a broomstick nailed to a wash tube sound sweet and make you want one.

[@FuukanaTV]

Looks like Messenger Guitar Grand Funk Railroad

[@willturnbull91]

Those pickups sound so sexy!

[@itzikc33]

do you have a lefty one?

[@hjbarber]

@geordie2001 did you watch this video?

In 0, the song is cut?

[@redukonio]

@Guitarvirtuoso666 they got very affortable series, here in germany you can get "old stock2 series that ran out of production for round 700-800 bucks (Euro) ... if i d need a new guitar i d take a Framus

[@BramClaes]

looks like a weird Japanese guitar from the sixties:p

[@stereosanctity7]

how much andy?

[@ztikmaen]

It looks so tiny :O

[@kikster93]

Would be nice if I could try it out without buying first. :/

[@StraitUpSuburbanite]

Joe Bonamassa at the end?

[@BramClaes]

only 999? I thought Framus only made boutique guitars

[@thommytaranto]

Fattest bridge single coil I've ever heard in my life! FUCK!

[@FreddyFuFu]

He looks and sounds better with the Reverend Warhawk. Nice guitar nonetheless.

[@peachy901]

Haha, sorry! I was too busy looking at the guitar

[@SparkyGi]

If you wish to have a clear opinion about guitar gear just hear any demo Andy's playing...

[@zachjal]

@ProGuitarShopDemos I bet you guys smile you can just roast these guys.

[@LainOfTheRealWorld]

@geordie2001 Garbage in Garbage out. Just because you have a nice pedal doesn't mean your can string up a trash can and be jimmy page.

[@WillMoon]

Given 999.99$ I think I'm still going to buy an American Strat. Actually for another couple hundred you can score a PRS Mira, and that's the only guitar you'll ever need. It seriously does everything.

[@VolodyaVolodenka1981]

that would be banal! it's no news you can play that stuff on such guitars, but how about something different?

[@Qert1109]

That thing is just like Susan Boyle: fugly but sounds beautiful

[@letsgetcarriedaway]

your 808th video wasn't a tube screamer?! FOR SHAME!!!

[@keeffan49]

@Halchemist15 open E i think: E B E G# B E

[@blacktarget]

beautifull guitar but a small body in my opinion

[@mndandy]

Why is an incredible reissue of an iconic '60s beat group-style guitar being wasted playing this tasty crap? Should be throwin' down with "Shakin All Over" (Johnny Kidd style) or something equally twangy.

[@RobbyWheelerGuitar]

@kirkhetfieldtrujillo Wrong. The starting point is your hands. If your hands aren't good, you could have a million dollars-worth in gear, and it'll all go to waste. I've heard great players make shitty guitars sound amazing.

[@NickMass35]

Love the ugliness of it.

[@SeliSirJelly]

this guitar's made of plywood. just sayin'.

[@yobhsiFehT]

OK, sorry to break up the Andy worship here, but doesn't anyone else think like me that he makes every piece of gear sound the same?? Great player, I love listening to him, but besides the fact that they demo mostly outlandish things I'll never see or be able to afford, I find the sonic objectivity of PGS videos a little lacking, so their reviews seem less and less useful to me. Been subscribed for years and will continue to, but... doesn't this bother anyone else??
