Rodebald Hoyer Alabama – 1960s German Vintage Archtop Jazz Guitar

This is the Modell "Alabama" by "Rodebald Hoyer". Rodebald Hoyer was a german luthier, who built many kinds of guitars during the golden age of german guitarcraftsmanship between the 50s and 80s. His guitars where known to jazz guitarists worldwide for their distinctive sound and high quality.

The guitar is in excellent condition, with minimal wear as visible in the pictures. The tuners operate smoothly and maintain proper string tension. The guitar produces a rich, full sound, making it ideal for playing blues and jazz music from the 1950s and 1960s. The low action and straight neck also contribute to a comfortable playing experience. Additionally, the frets have been polished, the fretboard has been oiled, and the strings are new.

The guitar can be played immediatly.

If you have any questions left, or if you need more pictures, feel free to ask :-)

About shipping:

I ship worldwide with DHL and with the DHL-shipping insurance wich goes up to 500€. I am not going to lie to you or blandish a possible transport risk like some other people do. International shipping can be dangerous and packages are sometimes treated roughly. If you however choose to have an international shipment, I will do my absolute best to protect the guitar. I have collected a lot of experience in the past on how to ship a guitar securely. I will take photos of the packaging and the exact condition of the guitar right before I ship it. You should know, that after shipping the guitar and entering the shipping number, I am not responsible for anything anymore and my job is done. But I will gladly back you up with the insurance case with said photos and exact details in the rare case anything goes wrong. The standart insurance I ship all guitars with is up to 500€. If you want a higher insurance, you can get that, just ask me first. Some countrys outside of the EU also have import taxes, be aware of that. Please note, that international shipping can sometimes take very long, on average 2 weeks for EU shipping and 1 month for intercontinental shipping, but it can take up to 3 times that time in some very rare cases.

Legal:

Taxation after UStG §25a. I usually take back everything you buy from me within 14 days after the arrival of the package. The conditions are, that everything is in the original condition I shipped it in and the shipping costs are carryed by the buyer.
