Hi, Annie--

The Blue Book does not list the various Framus Models separately. The is the information from the Blue Book:

"The majority of Framus acoustic guitars were produced in the 1960s. Some of the models that were produced inlclude the Texan, King, Blueridge, Tenor, Hootenany, and the Camping King. Used prices for these instruments range anywhere between $300 and $700, depending on the model."

I did find a discussion of the Framus Texan guitars that includes the prices paid by some. The discussion covers both the 6 string and the 12 string models and has some very interesting info:
