loweringthetone Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 (edited) Advertising this for my good friend Rick. Its in excellent condition : he bought it new in the 80's. It plays well - Ive tried it - nice straight neck. The bass is in Nottingham. £100 + p&p [attachment=77945:hondo_ba...itar_002.jpg][attachment=77946:hondo_ba...itar_004.jpg] [attachment=77944:hondo_ba...itar_001.jpg] PS The mark on the backplate is one of the original stickers.

PaulWarning Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I've got a Hondo with a sticker like that on it, it says made in Japan, if it is it's worth the money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonCello Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I had a Hondo Pro II when I was a kid. The body was like an Ercol coffee table, dark brown and bloody heavy. You could also limbo underneath the strings the action was so high. Like an Ercol though, really well made! The Japs just have it! This one is easily worth the money. Good Luck, LC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
