This 1959 Framus came in requiring a replacement bridge and complete overhaul. Seems to be an archtop jazz guitar which as an after thought, the Schaller made electronics housed on a sturdy chrome plate have been bolted onto the top. Very few of these around. Nice honkey tone from the pickups.
I have to say as a testament to German engineering these original pickups, pots and rotary switch function perfectly after 55 years.
