This video was produced by Tiller Productions, Des Moines, Iowa | The Original Case is very nice, but the handle has been replaced. It has lots of finish crazing to corroborate this is the original finish. Dings and scratches, but looks great for its age. This guitar is not perfection, of course. I thought it would be thin but it has a deep resonance that I'm sure the guitar helps. The top two frets have some wear and some finger divots also in the top two frets. This guitar plays effortlessly now with superb action up and down the neck. Sore fingers galore! It was done by one of our fine Iowa Luthier Shop, and they did not disappoint. All hidden under the new pickguard which looks like the same shape as the originals. The electronics also has a double sound feature that allows the bass setting to be set so you have a lead and a rhythm sound at the flick of a switch. They made a new Pickguard which contains the electronics and the input jack was routed to the end pin. The guitar already had the Framus Super Pickup installed, but the wiring was a mess. The original head, body, Faceplate, Tuners, roller bridge and A Nickel Tailpiece. I got it from one of my 'Pro Player Finders' and he had a lot of work done to it before I got it. This guitar has been traveling around Des Moines IA for awhile now. A 1950's Made in Germany Arnold Hoyer Herr im Frack Super RARE Archtop Guitar with a period correct German Framus Pickup that sounds great!!!
