Description from the seller
Arnold Hoyer Archtop – rare hybrid model with original Framus flip-up damper and palm tremolo (circa 1950s)
This beautiful Arnold Hoyer archtop from the 1950s is in very good, fully playable original condition.
It is equipped with an original Framus flip-up damper and palm tremolo – an extremely rare combination that is hard to find these days.
The tremolo works perfectly and allows for a gentle vibrato effect that is controlled with the ball of the hand.
The body is stable, with no cracks, no repairs, and no sunken ceiling.
The guitar is fully functional, very well tuned and pleasant to play, with a warm, clear archtop sound.
The mechanics are original, smooth-running, and reliably keep the tuning.
The rosewood fingerboard features the typical block inlays with a red 12th fret, an unmistakable distinguishing feature of Arnold Hoyer guitars of this era.
The paint is original and in very good condition, with no cracks or damage—only slight, age-appropriate marks are visible.
This guitar combines the best of two traditional German manufacturers:
the archtop body and neck by Arnold Hoyer with the innovative Framus hardware – consisting of the flip-up damper and palm tremolo system.
A combination that is extremely rare and makes the instrument a unique collector's item of German guitar making.
