This Hohner Contessa was made in West germany - and it looks very similar to the Framus Texan so they may be cousins. Nice Mahogany guitar with slim easy neck.
Note that they have a slighly arched back - that is normal and part of design.

It looks to be from the 70s. It's a Contessa by Hohner.
It measures just under 42" long. The body by itself is 20" long and 16 1/2" across at its widest.
The side measures 4" deep, but keep in might the back has a curve (bowed out) so it is more than 4 inches deep in places.
It is missing one tuneing key knob. It will also need strings. It is in altogether good condition with only minor scratches.
Made in West Germany
