My buddy is selling this and we're not sure if it's a real Franklin even though it has a badge that says it is. He bought it over 15 years ago at De-No music in Casa grande arizona. It's a good playing/sounding wood body guitar. I think it's a triple raise double lower all pull.

Thanks Paul. We really didn't think so. The badge was on the guitar when my friend bought it..........

I will alert the seller that it it confirmed the guitar is not a Franklin.

I wouldn't be tossing too many Benjamins at that particular "Franklinstein!"
