Mid-60's Höfner 4560
« on: March 24, 2015, 02:02:21 PM »
Just got this one and did a quick setup. Non-original bridge, and missing the strap buttons and three tuning post bushings. EUR 396... I think I got a good deal.



Here's a very happy me at the post office parking lot... couldn't wait to open the shipping box.

Nice...!
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Thanks. I should also take a group photo of the solid-bodies (and two hollowbodies that I forgot to include in this pic).
