Framus Guitars | Price List August 2008
Saturday July 21st saw the Warwick & Framus company celebrate 60 years of the Framus brand by opening a dedicated museum in Warwick’s
adopted hometown of Markneukirchen Germany. 300 dignitaries, musicians, and press, as well as the staff of the Warwick Framus operation
from all over the world were present to watch Warwick’s owner, Hans-Peter Wilfer, his wife, Florence, and the Mayor of Markneukirchen, Karl-
Heinz cut the ribbon on the beautifully restored mansion that is now home to all things historically Framus.
The vintage instrument collection covers the enormous cross-section of what Framus manufactured from 1946 to 1975 under the control of
Wilfer’s father, Fred.
The Musuem is a must see for any Musician. Over 500 instruments, amplifiers and accessories are displayed in a state of the art temperature
controlled musuem.
The opening of the museum was timed to coincide with the publication of a history of Framus, “Built in the Heart of Bavaria” by Dr Christian
Hoyer.
Furnished up with numerous pictures and photos, this book is not only describing the life’s work of Fred Wilfer but also documents a piece
of European Music history. Over 3 years of research and writing the author of this book, Dr. Christian Hoyer, and the Framus vintage expert
Volkmar Rudolph have put together photos, stories and anecdotes, in order to consistently present the history of the once biggest European
manufacturer of music instruments from 1946 to 1977.
An Amazing Coffee table book for any musician and instrument lover. It contains photos of amazing instruments and artists from the Stones to
Jazz Legend Attila Zoller and all stops in between.
