Vintage 1950s Arnold Hoyer Solist German Archtop Jazz Guitar Pickup
Vintage 1950s Arnold Hoyer Solist German Archtop Jazz Guitar Pickup
I am incredibly excited to offer a collection of guitars purchased from the lovely widow of a guitar collector in Bristol. He collected some of the best archtop guitars you can find, this being one of them. It’s an original 1950s Hoyer Solist with the rare pickup and volume/tone attached. It’s had a good life in his collection – he looked after all his guitars well and was a pretty incredible luthier. This one plays incredible, even with a slight twist on the neck (priced accordingly). He did some work on the neck to get it to play well and it really does, with no dead spots or issues. The cosmetic condition of this is nice, with a few light marks throughout. A truly incredible example. Grab a bargain! Please see the pictures below as these form part of my description.

The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products).
We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit.
It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving.
The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
