Vintage REPAIR PROJECT German made mid 60s Høfner 172 guitar in dachboden fund condition ! Pickups reading zero ohms, neck is nice and straight but has been stripped. frets are intact. Restore and enjoy or use it as a parts-car for repairs.
Vintage Gibson-style slope shoulder acoustic, believed to have originated as a Gibson J-50 ADJ. Features a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard and bridge, and Grover tuners. The bridge has been converted from the original adjustable saddle design to a fixed bone saddle. Most likely refinished at some point, 6 digit serial that we believe to have been re-stamped. Headstock and Rosette do not match serial for dating to early 70s. 38mm nut consistent with as early as 1967 production.
The guitar has a strong vintage Gibson voice and feel, and plays amazingly. However its provenance cannot be conclusively verified. While many construction details are consistent with a vintage Gibson, we are unable to authenticate it. Please inspect the photos carefully and satisfy yourself as to its originality before purchasing. With modern hardcase.
