Framus 5/1-50 Amateur? – Vintage Parlor Guitar – Made in W. Germany – 1960s
Offered is a charming Framus vintage acoustic guitar from Bavaria/West Germany. Inside the body is the original manufacturer label with the note “Built in the Heart of Bavaria” as well as “Framus-Werke Bavaria – Made in W. Germany”.
Based on construction, finish and label, it is likely a Framus 5/1-50 Amateur or a very closely related model from the 1960s. The model designation is provided to the best of our knowledge, but without warranty on the exact name.
The guitar impresses with its decorative vintage appearance featuring a classic sunburst finish, distinctive Framus headstock, open tuners, zero fret, pickguard, and the small parlor/salon body shape typical of that era.
Approx. dimensions:
Scale length: ~62.5 cm
Nut width: ~4.2 cm
