How's my Framus?

Posted by bridgette on Thu, 07/01/04 - 12:16:50.

I would like to know if it's worth anything..it's an acoustic, two tone that my mom got from an old boyfriend back in the day. The inside label reads Werke Bavaria, W. Germany
Serial No. 17486 Model No. 5/51 69D
I would greatly appreciate any info you could give on this guitar....Thank you - Bridgette

I have a Framus Atlantic semi hollow two pickup electric which I bought in 1967. It's still my favorite guitar out of the dozen or so I play. Most of them are well-crafted guitars, made in Germany by a former violin works. They turn up on ebay regularly, enter Framus guitar on the ebay site and you can check prices. The better-known Rickenbakers were modeled after them. Bill Wyman of the Stones played a Framus bass.

If you think about selling it, drop me a line.
