Hofner Club 50


I've just finished restoring a 1958 Hofner Club 50. When it was dropped off it had no hardware apart from the pickups and was in desperate need of a re-fret and finish touch up. The control panel hole had been enlarged for some unknown reason so I made a Rosewood plate for it to sit on. Worked very well don't you think. The re-fret went really well bringing to whole instrument back to life.
The owner said that he plugged it into his value amp & could have been in the Beatles.
I always love bring these old instruments back to life.
