  4. Takamine ef25 acoustic 25 th anniversary white
    raymond

    I am trying to make a decision about keeping this guitar or trade it in for an upgrade. Before I trade or make my decision, I would like to know its value. I keep it in its Takamine case and have it in a closet so it is in mint condition. I like it but looking to get a Taylor and may use it for trade but havent decided.

    1. OH, boy this was an old post.. but i hope you kept that guitar… what a beautiful beautiful guitar.. and the sound is magnificent.. I have it, i love it.. i bought it new.. it is not mint, because it has been loved 🙂 but it IS rare, and relatively valuable, and sounds better than MANY a Taylor or even many Martins… funny, there was one on Ebay last year sold for 2500.. today there is one selling for $419 or best offer.. i guess its all relative.. i wouldnt give mine up for the world.. i especially love it when someone who REALLY knows what they’re doing, picks it up and plays 🙂

      I have the same guitar that I bought used 20 years ago. I got a hell of a bargain on it then, but I have the same question. It has been a fantastic guitar. I paid $250 for it in 1987. Every musician who sees it and plays it comments on what a fine instrument it is.

      I know that thay made an ES-150 way back in the 1930’s or 1940’s, but , that was a different animal. I have the one that was made only in the period 1969-1974.
      Do you know where I can find more info on this item? Also, if you have any idea of what some approximate price range of what its value might be.

          I’ve got one also that my brother-in-law got during vietnam while in Germany. He had loaned $200 to some guy who couldn’t pay him back, so he gave him the guitar. Based on this info, I can’t imagine that the guitar was worth at that time in Germany more than $300-$400. But I don’t know the exchange rate at that time. All I know is that the guitar is really, I mean really great to play — great action and great tone. It has a built-in pick-up which I haven’t tested yet. I just got it from my in-law last week.

            I too have a framus. It is a Romanze 5/103 which I believe is the model. It is a tear drop shaped 6 string acoustic. I saw one on ebay just today for over $3,000 I was in shock! I am not sure how much I could sell it for if I wanted too, but I was just curious of it’s worth. I would suggest you try to find the model number on the inside of the guitar and try looking it up that way if you can’t try the serial number on the inside 🙂

            1. Framus Romanze 5/103 flatback guitar lute

              I had the opportunity to buy TWO of them NOS in 1994, but I bought only ONE NOS Framus Romanze 5/103 flatback guitar lute for only Hfl 175.-. The only thing that was special to them was the teardrop shape. Because of that shape you can play them laying in your bed. They had laminated tops, backs and sides and sounded like a cheap laminated Japanese Ariana (sub-brand of Aria’s). I traded it when I bought my used Aria Pro II TA-61 in 1995 and I got 200 guilders for it. That is €90.- toda.
              I saw one offered at the Veenendaal Vintage Guitar Show in the early 2000s for €265.- but I bought a solid top round back guitar lute with OHSC instea.
              The $3000.- that Jinna saw on eBay is a totally ridiculous price IMHO.
              I buy used solid rosewood classical guitars for less than €600.- and sometimes even for €350.- or lss.
              If you have €3000.- in your pocket, there are better ways to spend them than buying one laminated guitar lute that sounds so so. The fact that an item is scarce on the market, doesn’t always mean that it has a high valu.
              It could also mean that almost nobody wanted it back in the days.
              I guess that it’s worth maybe €350.- now (to a collector, not to a serious guitar player, who would spend that money on a used solid rosewood guitar with a solid spruce or solid cedar top.

            I have just been given an old Framus Accoustic which has seen better days. I was wondering if anyone out there knew of a Framus parts dealer from whom I could purchase a new neck from. The wear on this one is extrordinary and it is not worth having the neck re-built. Ideally I would like to rebuild it but cost is of course a consideration. Anyhow, please get in touch if any of you guys out there can help me. Thanks all, and bye for now.

          I’ve got one also that my brother-in-law got during vietnam while in Germany. He had loaned $200 to some guy who coulodn’t pay him back, so he gave him the guitar. Based on this info, I can’t imagine that the guitar was worth at that time in Germany more than $300-$400. But I don’t know the exchange rate at that time. All I know is that the guitar is really, I mean really great to play — great action and great tone. It has a built-in pick-up which I haven’t tested yet. I just got it from my in-law last week.
