This is for Chris L to possibly update the gear guide, but some others may find this kinda interesting as there are some nice pics!... I Found this while perusing guitars on eBay...

http://cgi.ebay.com/1965-FRAMUS-GOLD...item336282ff96

The guitar I suppose is actually an early to mid 60's Framus Golden Strato De Luxe Model # 5/168-54gl. looks to me the exact model Thurston uses in the Sugar Kane video. great pics in the auction, crazy mirrored switchplate and interesting pickguard. pretty expensive like most Framus guitars these days...
This is what else the seller says:

sunburst finish, solidbody,
  • sandwich construction
  • tremolo, muter
  • Rosewood fingerboard
  • 2 PU, oval, gold
  • organ-effect
  • gold covers
  • built since ca. 1963

    this particular instrument:
  • dates ca. 1965
  • model built until the mid 60s
Organ effect? weird i'm guessing its a built in fuzz effect, not too uncommon for non US type made electrics of this time period.
