Description from the seller
Vintage Archtop Jazz Guitar approx. 1960 – Fasan / Voss / Schaller | Rarity + Case
For sale is an exceptional German archtop guitar from the early 1960s – a real piece of music history from a time when instruments were still crafted with a lot of workmanship, experience, and attention to detail.
With a high degree of probability this model comes from the Fasan (Sandner) milieu and was probably manufactured in the early 60s for distribution through Voss – an exciting detail for connoisseurs and collectors.
Characteristics & Special Features:
This guitar combines everything vintage lovers seek:
Classic archtop construction with characteristic sound holes
Distinctive headstock shape
Typical fretboard inlays (Double Dots on the 5th & 9th frets)
Comfortable, pronounced fret radius
Stylish two-tone finish
The body maple in combination with a rosewood fretboard provides a warm, woody and very musical tone.
Special Highlight:
The installed pickup plate from Schaller with a Voss stamp makes this instrument even more interesting.
The traditional dealer Voss had many instruments manufactured by makers like Fasan – a genuine collector’s detail with history.
Sound & Playing Feel:
Thanks to floating pickups and classic zero fret, the guitar delivers:
Warm, rounded vintage tone
Direct response with a lot of character
Perfect for jazz, blues & swing
