Diablo II Supreme Masterbuilt

Markneukirchen, Germany (January 21, 2019) -- From 24 to 27 January, the NAMM Show 2019 opens its doors in Anaheim, California for music enthusiasts from all over the world. You will find Framus – as in previous years – together with Warwick, RockBoard and RockGear at booth 4636 in hall D. There you will find interesting Masterbuilt (Custom Shop Markneukirchen) and Teambuilt (Pro Series, Made in Germany) novelties.

This year’s Framus novelties are dominated by three-dimensional tops and strikingly curved contours, which are already familiar from the Framus Idolmaker and which make the Diablo II and Panthera II models unmistakable and extremely aesthetic. The Stormbender Devin Townsend model will also be available as a 7-string Masterbuilt from 2019.

The Framus model Diablo was completely revised and now presents itself as Diablo II, with carved top like the Idolmaker.

All instruments of the Masterbuilt and Teambuilt model series feature Plek Fretwork with IFT – Invisible Fretwork Technology. The fret edges of all Masterbuilts are rounded in addition.
