Wolf Hoffmann’s signature Framus WH-1 is a seriously well-built shred machine. The Fluence pickups give you a ton of versatility—clean single-coil tones to screaming high-gain—and the neck-thru design really lets it sing. This guitar is ideal for players who need a reliable, high-performance instrument for progressive metal and hard rock.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Fluence pickups offer both active and passive modes, expanding tonal options from clean, articulate sounds to high-gain distortion without excessive noise.
While the Floyd Rose system provides excellent tremolo capabilities, it does require a bit of practice and understanding to set up and maintain proper tuning.
Tigerstripe ebony is known for its unique visual appearance and often exhibits a slightly tighter grain structure, resulting in a smoother playing feel and potentially improved clarity.
