Description

The Framus Star Bass was a unique thinline model with many variants produced in the 60s, with one most famously played by Bill Wyman of the Stones. This hollowbody 5/149 is a killer instrument, with just the right amount of wear for its age, but a wonderful sound and ease to play. Includes chipboard case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
