"Doesn't sound like a Hofner at all."  ;)

I sent the seller a request for pictures and asked why he thinks it's made in Korea. It looks like a 1967 or earlier bar bridge in the picture.

I hope the seller doesn't get a bunch of emails telling him it is a mid to late 60's USA Rivoli.  He may pull it and relist it then.   :sad:

I wouldn't have recognized it if you guys hadn't told me.  I'm watching it now - curious as to what will happen.

He has updated (but not pulled) the listing to say it is a Rivoli.

Still the market should determine the right amount.

The 'market' could make a better decision if more (and better) pictures were posted.

Yes, and a full description of condition. With that bridge and the serial number it does look like an original issue, but I wouldn't bid without a lot more info.

The tuners look like old Schaller's.  Everything else looks good.  If it goes for under $500 someone will be happy.
