Ако такива интересни китари ако те се провеждат в моята страна, аз със сигурност ще се интересуват.

Hello there guys,

Could you help me to clear up my question, please?

It's about The Beatles and "Orpheus" Bulgarian accoustic (or semi-accoustic) guitars.

During discussion in forum a theme about "The Beatles and Soviet Guitars of the Leningrad Musical Instruments Factory named after Lunacharsky" I received a message from a guy who worked in this factory (so, he doen't mix up Beatles guitars Gibson J160E, Jose Ramirez with Orpheus (I already asked him about it) . 

In our conversation he mentioned the Beatles with Orpheus acoustic/semi-acoustic guitars:

- i saw a poster the beatles were pictured with bulgarian guitars orpheus...

- The Beatles with Orpheus??? It's incredible. I know nothing about it and never seen any pictures the Fab Four with Orpheus. Could you give more information about it?

- there were old posters, I saw them 25-30 years ago where they were pictured with six-stringed acoustic or semi-acoustic orphees...

- Was it photoshoped? I doubt, I tried to find anything about it with Google and found nothing.

- good quality posters... with the orpheus...

- Are you sure, Orpheus? Were the Beatles early- or late- period?

- yes, I am... it was early period (I think, before 1965)... i was not the only person who was surprised with that picture...

- Probably you mix up with this: British distributor Selmer sold with name Futurama guitar Resonet Grazioso (made in Czechoslovakia). George Harrison played Resonet Grazioso Futuramа in Hamburg, 1958. Do you mean this guitar?

- no, there were acoustic guitars...

- Don't you mix photos where the Beatles with Soviet acoustic guitars?

- no, me and my friends noted those bulgarian guitars...

- But how you've defined that tht is Orpheus on the photo? Was there the logo with Orpheus name? How were the Beatles were dressed there?

- it seems to me the logo was visible, head of guitars were seen. ringo is behind the drums and the rest are around him. they were in light-colored suits.

- And Paul also with acoustic? Not with his bass?

- I do not remember that...

- The Beattles on stage or in recording studio?

- not on the stage, but in the studio (not in recording studio, but in the studio for a photo session), photo staged for an advertising poster, everybody faced to the camera...

 

The topic is incredible. I think, on the picture is shown some guitars very similar to Orpheus, which easy to mix up with Orpheus.

So, I'm looking for this picture or any info to confirm or disprove it.

Please, help me to clear this question.

Regards,

Beetle

In the past I possessed the same model.

It is Orpheus semi acoustic

There were two different type bodies from pine and from plywood

If the body is embossed it is from pine if it is flattish it is from plywood

For neck wood I am not sure!

In1965 Soviet embassy in London presented Beatles with 4 Russian-made guitars.Beatles made a photo playing guitars to send back to factory
