2699.0. "Roger Guitars" by SAHQ::ROSENKRANZ (Rock with Gene & Eddy) Tue Mar 30 1993 15:37

    There apparently was a line of guitars built in Germany with the brand
    name "Roger". As I understand it, the Roger line was produced by the
    father of Roger Rosmeisel (sp?) who did design work both for Fender and
    Rickenbacker. Apparently the line was named for his son.
    
    The guitars produced, I believe were arch tops. The had the cat's eye
    sound holes reminiscient of Gretsch synchromatics and RIC capris.
    
    Does anyone know anything about these guitars? Were they of good
    quality? How may were produced? Were they popular? Are they well
    known in Europe? What different types were produced? During what
    years did the company exist?
