Hofner - Rare ??

Post by Sam »

I came across a hofner 175 (a 1965 i believe) with a black and white paisley covering. I found one site that talked about them and it stated that this type of covering was very rare. I am trying to find out what it is worth. Thanks

£200-400 depending on condition. They're not amazingly rare, but Eurodrek of this era is usually semi-playable at least.

this one is in excellent shape not a scratch on it. From what I have been able to find out which is limited is that there were two design with the vynl cover, one was sunburst which I found quaite a few in my search but only one with the paisley black and white and it was in a UK collectors file.
