FRANSCHHOEK

T-Style Electric Guitar
Limited Edition of 24 Pieces

Following the success of its first guitar collection, the Festival unveils FRANSCHHOEK, a new T-style electric guitar released in a limited edition of just 24 pieces. Adorned with the Festival’s official logo, it celebrates the musical legacy that has brought the stages of Montreux to life for sixty years.

Inspired by the greatest guitarists to have performed at the Festival, the FRANSCHHOEK combines a striking Sparkle Blue finish with a maple neck, a mahogany body, and a pair of handcrafted pickups made in Switzerland. Offering greater presence, definition, and dynamics, they deliver a thicker, more biting tone while preserving the character of the finest vintage pickups.

Designed by Guitar’s Café Lausanne (Adrien Fabrice and Philippe Mazenauer) and fitted with pickups conceived and handcrafted by Hugo Sierro, the FRANSCHHOEK embodies the artisanal craftsmanship at the heart of this exclusive collection.
