Multivox Primier 1950s



For your consideration is a USED VINTAGE RARE 50'S MULTIVOX PREMIER E612 CUTAWAY DELUXE HOLLOW BODY - NATURAL

This is an extremely rare and top-of-the-line, Multivox Premier Cutaway Deluxe E612. It is a 17 1/4" archtop hollow body, with a blonde (natural) finish, electric guitar. The guitar is 100% original. It is one of the earliest model with the bakelite/plastic covered pickups.Description from VintageSilvertones.com

The Cutaway Deluxe archtop is stunningly beautiful. The Art-Deco and silver sparkle details really make it. The full package includes the original leather case. This is a players guitar but a collector might appreciate it too for it's originality, unique pickups, sparkle details and leather case.

They never met a metallic color they didn't like. :rolleyes:

No, thanks.

 

[Dogsinplastic]

Outside of the horrible pick guard and matching sparkle components AND the toxic green goop, I like it.

 

[DFB]

Pass

 

[jelloman]

Just because it's old doesn't make it good...

 

[BlackCat]

Interesting but overpriced.

 

[dodgechargerfan]

So, it's USED?

[Chad]

Love it.

 

[Deep Eddy]

I dig it, but I'm concerned about the green ooze. Looks radioactive.

 

[Pine Apple Slim]

I have an old Gretsch snare w gold sparkle wrap that has the same green discoloration.
I kinda like it.

 

[Rick 381]

Purists will hate me but I'd have it rebound and refinished. It's to far gone to save.

 

[Modern Saint]

I would try

I'm with Mr. Horse.

 

[Stratguy]

No way I'd want to play that neck, so serious refurbishing would be required if it was to be anything but a wall hanging for me.

 

[jaxn slim]

Mega hot!
I'm a little concerned about some spots where it looks like the binding is separating from the body. But otherwise I love it.

I kinda liked it at first glance apart from the hideous pickguard. Then noticed the oversized dot inlays (awful). Then saw the hideous sparkle stuff in other spots. Then saw the close-ups of the condition.

No thank you. Not even sure that is a collector guitar any more.
