With the AZ-10, Framus remembers ancient goodnesses and represents a classic of the former company history in a modernized form. This exquisitely processed full resonance archtop jazzguitar orientates itself to the homonymous instrument series which was built in the 60s for jazz-legend Attila Zoller, and played by him for a long time. The available dual pickup version follow thereby the AZ-10 models of the mid-60s. The instrument has a massive, arched Spruce top. Architraves, ground and glued-in neck are of massive Flamed Maple, and a Tigerstripe Ebony fingerboard with custom inlays. All woods are selected carefully and guarantee excellent vibration characteristics.

For an adequate sound, there are two specially balanced MEC humbucker, which are mounted floating together with the 5-layer Celluloid pickguard. Tonal, the new double pickup AZ-10 evidently speaks fluently jazz, offers however, with a more flexible pick up assembly than its single pickup sister, a lot more than only the classic glove-tone in highest perfection, and so it's the ideal partner for all varieties of this genre. The familiar super-playability invites to endless excursions across the perfect fingerboard and makes it difficult to put the AZ-10 aside. For open-minded jazz guitarists this is an absolute dream-instrument, if not even the guitar for life.

This exquisitely processed full resonance archtop jazzguitar orientates itself to the homonymous instrument series which was built in the 60s for jazz-legend Attila Zoller, and played by him for a long time.

The Framus AZ-10 is a modern remake of the previously named Attila Zoller Signature jazz guitar from the Frankfurt Musikmesse 2004, which Framus originally released in the 60"s and made a worldwide splash. The extraordinary quality of this instrument, manufactured in Germany, was convincing right from the start and gained a positive feedback based on its good price, excellent performance and inspiring craftsmanship. This success caused Framus to extend its model palette by the AZ-10 Single Pickup Blonde.

Except the matched headstock with a veneer of Flamed Maple, the Single Pickup Blonde, like all other AZ-10 models, is made of solid and carefully selected tone woods. The top of this full resonance guitar is made of Spruce, the back, the notch, the single-part neck and also the pick guard consist of AAA Flamed Maple. The body has a black Abalone/Celluloid binding made of genuine nacre at its front and back side. The same material has been used for the custom inlays, inserted into the Ebony fingerboard.

The strings are guided over a length-compensated Ebony bridge, fixed to a trapezoid string holder and kept in tune by the Framus locking hardware - completely created in gold. The free-floating mounted MEC Jazz humbucker is controlled by a volume and tone control mounted to the pick guard.
