My Sorella Blues played by Lena

Want to introduce my Framus Sorella (with pickups from the Riviera), "Built In The Heart Of Bavaria" 1960.
Play Blind Willie Johnson (Catfish Keith taught me that) and Bukka White songs.
Hope you enjoy!?

Hallo Lena, schön zu sehen, dass der alten Dame "Sorella" durch Dein Spiel wieder Leben einhauchst!

Und die alte Dame wird es Dir sicherlich danken.

Diese alten Gitarren, seinerzeit leider sehr oft unterschätzt, haben ihn, den Charme der Zeitlosigkeit!

Gruß

@dirtypairXX Vielen Dank, sehr recht hast mit dem, was Du über die Framus schreibst. Nur schad, daß die meinige ein so schmales Griffbrett hat. Ist halt nicht so ideal für Fingerpicking, daher spiele ich sie auch weniger auf ihr, als sie es verdient hätte. Herzliche Grüße, lena

Hi Lena,

Very very nice. Enjoyed your playing and guitar!

Just swapped my Stratocaster Japan for a Framus Soralla with single pick up.

Wich strings do you use?

[lenaspieltblues]

@mwketelaar Good idea! :)) The string that I use (only for my Framus and especially for slide) are Thomastik-Infeld (Jazz BeBop, round wound, not! the flat wound, .014-.055). Thank you, Lena

@WEBTRAIN I thinks guitars like this are worth to be restored. Good plan! :) Lena

I have a guitar like this one since 1963,,as a kid,, except color is diff, tailgate is curved (Sorella logo) and I had a small amp with it, Dynacord, which my brother destroyed.amp was small,blue in color,great echo/tremlo, amp chord was RCA jack one end and 4-5 pin for amp, I remember that, plus it had a foot switch (3 prong in rear of amp) the amp/guitar sounded great, I plan to restore mine soon, just finished on my 1973 es-335
