- Herrnsdorf Futuristic Marvel
guitarz.blogspot.com I should definitely not show this Herrnsdorf guitar but keep it secret and buy it for myself as a reward for all the time and energy I've spent here sharing and celebrating our electric idol... But it's just not the right...
- Musima Herrnsdorf Archtop
guitarz.blogspot.com Here is a good old DDR Musima-Herrnsdorf archtop. Herrnsdorf was another Markneukirchen-based instruments company started in the 19th century, turned electric in the 1950s - producing inevitably cool Schlaggitarren, mother-of-toilet-seat...
- Voss Jazz Guitar
guitarz.blogspot.com What a poor guitar blogger I am, today again I cannot say much about this Voss jazz guitar, but a rough description. First of all, I never heard about the Voss brand so far, even after a few years spent glorifying German schlaggitarren,...
- Hoyer 12-string Acoustic In Beaverton Or For Sale (again) For $350
I posted this guitar originally back on Jan 25, 2011 when this seller had it for sale previously - I suppose he didn't sell it then since he is reposting it on CL and so am I. He is asking $350 for it this time around and only wanted $300 before but...

Arnold Hoyer Esquire 19a
guitarz.blogspot.com
This Arnold Hoyer Esquire 19a is a quite sober guitar compared to the flamboyant jazz/acoustic guitars this brand offered in the 1950s: no special finish, no German carve nor carved top, no complex binding, regular F-holes... No, wait, look at that crazy fretboard with burgundy mother-of-toilet-seat accordion finish! And the scratchplate could have been used on an halberd!
A similar guitar is this alleged Rellog Gitona - I'm not sure that Rellog Gitona was ever a guitar brand, for me it's a pickup brand but it's probably the only label on the guitar, that might be confusing... Anyway, tell me if I'm wrong!
These guitar share the same headstock design but this one has an East-German stoptail where the Hoyer has a West-german one... Well by now you know all about the big mess that was early electric lutherie in Europe, where you couldn't tell here in Fender, here is Gibson, and that's how it all started (if it's true actually...)
