Description: Up for sale is a RARE Hofner 4990-12 from 1975. Made in Germany. Featured on Steve’s Vintage Hofner website! A photo of this guitar was apparently never put in their 1975 catalogue. I have never seen another like one like this. Definitely a rare find. The projection in on this guitar is very powerful. The grain on the woods are beautiful. And the bookmark matched back is truly stunning. It is a work of art! Open chords are easy to play. The action is high as you get down the neck. Probably being caused by a dip in the top. And it is making the bridge lift. So it will need some attention if you plan on gigging with it. Nice big block inlays - inlays at the headstock too. Original Schaller tuners and original bridge. Comes with a padded gig bag. Please read the original ad for this guitar. I have included it in the pics courtesy of Steve. It is pretty hysterical. This guitar was originally marketed to the “pretentious guitarist!”
