Well. (And this is a guess dressed up as intelligence) I don't think so. The prices on E Bay for non electric Frami 12 strings range from 550 to 850 and I can't be really sure of the condition. So if this is a working acoustic electric in good to real damn good condition I would think it is not overpriced.

Recently a set neck Framus Blueridge 5/99 was on sale 3 times here in the UK no bids @ £160 it had no issues apart from one dodgy tuner I don't think Framus are rated highly here in the UK.

Very interesting. I don't remember having seen, so far, a Framus with the name on the top of the guitar the way EKO guitars seem to be made. This one looks very desirable.  These are Krona..no?

Hello everyone- new member here! From what I gather, our guitars depending on the model and year are very desireable. I am trying to narrow in on the value of my 12 string Hootenanny 5/024 serial #219.  Yes, I said  s/n 219. I've been told of auctions for the 5/024 at 5,000 usd to 11,000 usd and these were later serial numbers. I guess some Beatle buffs with deep pockets really like them as John and Paul used them in various songs like HELP and You've got to hide your love.

I guess a fair price is what some are willing to pay! You can't beat the feel and distinct sound of a Framus.

Brian

Post Script: Anyone with info on my guitar?
