Hofner 63 Colorama in LA area for $325 - Modified but nice




This Colorama has obviously been modified with Dimarzio pickups - however if you put nickel covers on these humbuckers you could regain most of the vintage appeal of this guitar. Colorama's are rare in the United States - mostly found in England and Europe - so you'll be the only indie kid on the block with one - and it'll sound like a Les Paul with those DiMarzio's in there.

ELECTRIC GUITAR ....Hofner 1963 "colorama".....this baby has a rock hard maple neck, with less than could be expected wear. its got a real pretty red/ black burst, which is how i got it back in 1975. (so was it a refin. i don't know). it plays real sweet, though i did have new Dimarzio p.u.'s put in that year so they are true "vintage" dimarzio's,( but i did have all those mini switches removed as they were quite noisy)! it does however have that unique hofner through body tremelo,and plate which has no pitting at all on it as you can see!!!! and that is all original! its in marina del rey area...we're asking $325.00 obo...(and i'll toss in a gig bag with the deal)...call jack @(310)397 7126 ..and lets make a deal, (she needs a new home)

IMPORTANT NOTE TO ALL READERS

I am reposting items here that are listed on CRAIGSLIST throughout the USA. I am not selling any of these items and I cannot facilitate the sale of anything here - so please do not comment or post questions like "Is this still available?" or "I am interested in your guitar please call me, etc." You need to contact the seller directly by calling the phone number listed on the post or by going to the CL listing and emailing them. NEW FEATURE: Click on the title of the CL Listing inside my post to LINK thru to the original Post. If the original CL listing is deleted the item most likely is no longer available. Thanks for checking out my blog and GOOD LUCK!



Please don't call, contact, bother or harass these sellers long after their post is expired. Take for granted if the listing is over 30 days old that the guitar or amp is LONG GONE! Thank you.
