The list of German guitars covers mainly DDR production. Western Germany
represented only by a couple of instruments that are definitely cheesy.
DDR-made guitars were among the best of all "Eastern block" guitars - the
communist rule could not easily make German people lazy and ignorant, so the
quality of the instruments remained relatively high. Musimas were usualy priced
twice higher than other Soviet/Czechoslovakian/Bulgarian instruments on the
market behind the Iron Curtain. Musima guitars and basses were the instruments
of choise of many professional musicians in the Eastern Europe. Although
considered a "hi-end" in the "communist" region, Musimas' quality was still far
from a real hi-end and even "second-grade" instruments made by Hagstrom and
other neighbors.
Brands like Meinel und Herold and Migma were a part of the same Musima
corporation, and you can notice that certain hardware parts look the same on all
of those instruments.
Unlike other "communist" brands, Musima still exists but they currently make
acoustic instruments only.
