New Smelly Old Guitar Day

1959 Framus Studio Archtop

I really wanted a Gibson ES125, but have way too many kids and not enough moneys for that sort of carry on. This old girl fits the bill in many ways though, light, affordable, plays great, old wood. It sounds really good too, nice acoustic guitar vibes when you play light but if you play hard it really barks and gets super loud and shouty.

I have plans to do a few mods to this old girl . . . stay tuned unless your a collector of old German guitars in which case you'd be horrified.

Nice! Love those old archtops. A friend of mine has a 1930s Gibson that I'm forever trying to buy off him.
