Framus 6-String Banjitar – Vintage German Craftsmanship | Fully Original | Setup & Ready to Play!

Up for sale is a beautifully preserved Framus 6-String Banjitar – a hybrid instrument that combines the familiar playability of a guitar with the bright, twangy tone of a banjo. Perfect for guitarists looking to add that unmistakable banjo flavor to their sound without learning a new instrument.

This Banjitar is 100% original and has been professionally maintained and fully set up. The action was adjusted for optimal playability, and it’s been strung with a fresh set of quality strings. It's in excellent playing condition and ready to go right out of the box.

Built in Germany by Framus, a legendary name in European instrument making, this model showcases the brand’s attention to detail and precision craftsmanship. Framus was at the forefront of innovative stringed instrument production in the mid-20th century and gained recognition among both jazz and folk musicians worldwide.

This particular model dates back to the 1960s–1970s era, when Framus produced high-quality banjos and banjitars for both the European and American markets. These instruments are now considered collectible vintage pieces, known for their durability, tone, and unique appeal.
