Framus 12 string
On the video for Won’t You Listen Now, Lisa is playing a Framus 12 string with a trem bar. I was wondering how well (or unwell) the guitar stays in tune when the trem bar is used.

Hi Daniel! It’s quite the monster and it sounds fantastic but I wouldn’t rely on it to stay in tune for a live performance. Or at least, I wouldn’t touch the tremolo during a show 🙂 But in the studio, where you can re-tune after each take, it is perfect for adding some great and totally unique effects Like the intro to “Nothing Is in Vain” for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3JnZBz0Zro
But yes, not the most reliable when it comes to STAYING in tune. -

So that is how you guys got that unique intro sound on Nothings in Vain. Always wondered. It really adds to the character of that song. Apparently there is a very famous symphony that starts off like that, off tune for the same effect hundreds of years ago. I just cant remember what symphony that was. Its really late here. I guess great musical minds think alike. ????
