NOS Framus Mayfield Custom F Hole Jazz Guitar Black NEW OLD STOCK
$2,199
Framus Mayfield Custom : NEW OLD STOCK
The inspiration is obvious, but proper laminated-body thinlines in the style of Gibson's ES-335 aren't too common. This paucity of competition is one reason why the ES-335 remains such an electric guitar icon.
The Framus Mayfield, however, uses pressed laminate top and back, albeit with solid sides, and a maple centre-block. Pretty much the real deal.
Shape-wise, it's very different, with thinner horns, less bulbous lower bouts and slightly more compact too: 389mm (15.3-inches) across the lower bout and 473mm long (18.6-inches), as opposed to the ES-335's 406mm (16-inches) by 483mm (19-inches). Thickness-wise, however, it's similar with a rim depth of 46mm and a maximum depth of around 65mm.
Weight is good too, more vintage-like than many contemporary, heavier Gibson ES-335s.
The Mayfield's neck is less Gibson like than its build suggests. With a slightly narrow width, the shape is quite a thin-depth 'C' (19mm at the first fret, 22mm at the 12th, slightly thinner than the Framus specs). It's not ultra skinny, of course, but lacks the bulk of many classic Gibsons. It is, however, very comfortable and perfectly set-up. Playability is superb.
