1. Selmer-Beuscher Resonator Steel Guitar
Skjelden resonator fra 1957, og brukt som en «recordng guitar» i en studio i California siden 70 tals ift tidligere eier. Jeg kjøpte ca 10 år siden. 400 eksempler laget fra ca ‘53-‘69. Laget i messing og forniklet. I god stand men trenger streng. Original SB tuners og original bridge folger med men bridge har en liten sprek.
Pris: 12.000kr
Fra Internett:
Let me pass on some information for you, originally from Cyril Lefebvre:
"Paul Beuscher S.A., the most important general music store in Paris originally sold wooden hawaiian guitars that were made for him in Remiremont. He discovered a large market in the french African colonies for metal guitars that would work in the deletirious climate there. In 1953 he started by asking Theo Ruiz to build a copy of a Duolian in brass with a round neck. 400 of these were made until 1969, most went to Africa - perhaps a quarter stayed in Paris or went to England. The great African singer Kouyate Sory KAndia always played a Beuscher resophonic.
In 1963, Theo Ruiz built 40 Jazz guitars (these had a cutaway body) and a few tenor guitars ( I suspect this is the one that Pete shows in his picture - also with the same body as the JAzz model). He apparently made some steel Duolians in 1971 but I've never seen any of these. There are pressed back models and flat back models - the flat back is susprisingly the later model made up to 1969. Apparently cone production became a problem and production stopped because of it."
These instruments all carry the SB symbol on the back of the machine heads, a long headstock, inclined f holes and a tailpiece from the same source as Selmer jazz guitars. In the Beuscher catalogue for 1969 both the Duolian type and Jazz models sold for 620 Francs.
As a postscript, Mike Lewis of Fine Resophonics found what appears to be the last batch of 10 of these instruments in a Paris cellar - still boxed - brand new except for lack of cones. We fitted them with National cones and sold them. They wer numbered inside the body - scratched into the back under the well - I believe they were 62 - 72.
Cyril has some more information about other types of french resonators -
"In 1971, Gilbert Caranhac, who used to play bluegrass music on a Beuscher came back from the States with Dobro parts and commissioned Favino (who built fine acoustics for great french artists - jazz archtops) to build him a type of Dobro Model 60 with a square neck and grtovers. It sounded great so I acquired the same parts from Dobro and asked FAvino to build the same with round neck. FAvino went on to build another 10 - all with spiders. In 1974 Favino was asked by Alain Roux to build a kind of Trojan with a mahogany body. Beuscher did not want to help with coverplates so they were made by R. Carbon. - fine instruments"
If I've whetted your appoetite for these things - I recommend you get off to West Africa - most of them are there!! (Mind you they're probably all beaten into cooking pots by now!!)
