1960's Framus Gaucho parlor sized acoustic in Bellingham WA for $275
This seller is offering another neat little vintage Euro guitar, the Framus Gaucho. These German made acoustics took the Leo Fender concept all the way and they are total bolt together acoustics - the bridge is screwed on and the neck bolts on via a metal bracket plate as well. Very solid little guitars for sure. They are all solid woods including the famously slim Framus necks made of a multi-layered horizontal laminate.
Here is how Elderly describes one of these on their website:
13-1/2" lower bout, white-bound sunburst spruce top, mahogany sides and back, mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard, pearloid dot inlays, 1-5/8" nut width, 24-3/4" scale, zero fret, bolted-on rosewood bridge with metal trim and adjustable saddle, tortoise plastic pickguard, made in the heart of Bavaria,
