This is a rare Holzapfel 12 string made by the son of the famous 12 string maker, Carl Hozapfel of Maryland. Made in 1950, I recently restored this guitar to a playable condition for my customer. The sound that came out of these guitars was amazing, especially since it has a pine top that is 7 mm thick. Mr. Holzapfel last name is pronounced Hol-zap-fel, just like it is spelled.
