Very nice guitar. Nice repair also.

Fantastic ❤😊

Brilliant work,,I'd watched earlier vids,,,what a wild guitar..I love it,,great shirt by the way!

Cool pickguard and finish.

This could have been known as "the Beatle bass" instead of the violin shaped Hofner. But of course Stuart Sutcliffe wouldn't have given his instrument to Paul McCartney. 75 quid was a lot of money in those days, and they din't get along.

I have a Original tremolo on miy Framus. I’m sorry but Your trem isn’t the Original. Your guitar looks very good.

This is not a Framus Florida but a Framus Missouri. I got the same guitar from a colleague last year. Mine is from 1966. The tremolo and bridge on your guitar are not original, in my opinion.

Back in the day when they built guitars like 1955 Buick RoadMasters.

Nice improvisation. Very bluesy.

wicked guitar, as if I hear 432 Hz.

I think I have this guitar. It’s had a headstock repair and it said it was a fresher. But after researching, this is what it looks like. The same brass bridge, neck and string through body. I found it at a thrift store. This definitely the one! Thank you 🙏🏼

Hi. Nice guitar. I've just got a non - cutaway Fasan with the black and white pattern binding but also has different coloured strips of wood on the sides. Does your guitar have an adjustable truss rod? Mine has a truss rod cover and you can see the rod but it's square in section and has no thread or nut. Thanks,

Nice guitar. Which model is it please? I've seen a similar one with no cutaway. Do you know what model the non cutaway would be? Thanks

country blues guitar

Very cool to have a thorough demo.

i am from june 1953...

Wow, wonderful guitar

That's my kinda box. Probably maple laminate. Deep, sonorous tones? Not a hope. Good mojo? You bet. Skiffle and jug band music deserves no less.

Hi Arne, nur am Rande: In der Lindenberg Biographie "Mach dein Ding" spielt Udo in den Sechzigern bei der amerikanischen Truppenbetreuung. Rate mal, welche Gitarre der (amerikanische) Gitarrist im Film spielt und wie die Kopfplatte dieser Gitarre aussieht. Genau: eine Framus mit dieser unsäglichen "Paddel"-Kopfplatte. Ist ja vielleicht auch ein bisschen Werbung für die guten alten "German Guitars from Franconia" Viele Grüße, Norbert

This guitar reminds me of a 50's Hohner archtop that I've played, great sound and feel, and an affordable and true vintage guitar. Nice sound

nice one! i have yet to own a non bolt-on framus ;P

Nice one. Have you fitted that pickup? I put a Schaller floating pickup on mine & had it wired directly to the jack socket. Sounds great plugged in with a set of D'Addario EJ21s.

Does floating fretboard make the soundboard vibrates better?

Beautiful guitars, congrats

Lovely guitar, shown to good effect. Gives me the wants.

Nice guitar, but if you bending hard the strings may occurs that break the rear top laminated. It is very thin laminated. Sounds good.

Fortsetzung: Die Saitenhalterabdeckung an der Bridge zum Beispiel - soll man sich da dran schneiden? Die Klinkenbuchse einfach "random" im Korpus montiert (gibt es aber auch bei Ibanez!) und die Kopfplatte ("Wir wollen weder Gibson noch Fender kopieren, also machen wir sie einfach so hässlich, wie es sonst keiner machen würde") Gibt natürlich auch Features wie den Nullbund, den leider die Amis und Japaner nie kopiert haben, der aber eigentlich eine gute Sache ist. In seiner "Schrulligkeit" jedenfalls ein liebenswertes Instrument, das einen neuen, spielenden Besitzer verdient! Liebe Grüße, Norbert

Hi Arne, halt so typisch deutscher E-Gitarrenbau der Siebziger: Tolles Holz - tolle Verarbeitung (sogar "German Curves), aber irgendwie hat man immer das Gefühl, sie haben nicht so recht verstanden, wie man eigentlich eine E-Gitarre baut.

Sounds great for a 1969 12 string! I've owned literally dozens of 12s over the years, and it's hard to find a good fit. I recently got a '64 Framus 12 (Hootenanny?) that is pretty good; it had a neck reset and refret done a while ago so it plays well for a 12 of its age, but my Taylor GA3 still plays much easier and sounds just as good (but very different). Anyway, have fun with your Texan, it's a keeper!

Sweet. I owned a 1958 club 50 for many years.

The hobby didnt come with a gloss finish, pretty sure this is a studio 5/51. Anyways, great guitars, im absolutely in love with my 1960 5/51. Its quite beat up but sounds and plays great

That thing was built to to play Mississippi Blues !!! Play on player man.. play on Btw that pickup is sounding great

beautiful mouth

Sound great, what kind of floating pickup is seting?

Höfners look great; that’s why I have them. But these new models need to have almost everything changed on them. So essentially, you’re buying a body you like for $400 USD, and then spending another 500 on machine heads, pickups, shielding, and completely new setup to get a truly great guitar.

Nice, sweet tone!

Awesome find,how did you find the Framus?

*PromoSM*

Finally! Hofner made something worth buying 👍

Oh My Wakan Tanka !

OH my WAkan Tanka that sounds lile a 2024 Porche tooypick Ç)))

Its not Fender bass.I dont like.

Would there be anyway that I could purchase those pickups?

Can see why Syd Barrett had this as his first converted electric he usedi The Tea Set. Lovely character to it

What strings are you using?

The guitar sounds good! Is it Italian? German? Japanese? Russian?

Another winner Arne!!

I have the exact same one I am not as observant as most mine was listed as a 65 model when I bought it but it was 1991 one and I didn't have alot of info on hofners a few years later a book came out that showed the changes in models from year to tear after that I had and idea if it was genuine 60s model because they where still being made serial numbers are not always available but removing the cover plate there where numbers on the pots that was a key to the year and month of manufacture I later realized the 1967 was a transition year the blade p/u s where supposed to be more powerful the tuners where a new desighn the gear was covered and it acted like a lock to keep the bass in tune now I can recognize one easy because they used this desighn untile people started wanting vintage models of the 62 or 63 witch everyone paul actually had as his second 500/1 many people now believe that pauls could have a 63 body and neck with 62 parts that where often used first untile the supply was depleted a frugal move for a company that had hand made bodies and parts that where not upgraded that much.
