[fran4001]

Not mine (I wish!) but some amazing early stuff here. If you ever wanted to dive into vintage Hofners in a big way, here's your ticket. Very droolworthy! Have a look:

Hi Fran - keeping well I hope?

This is an astonishing collection, but surprisingly short on details. I don't think the vendor is doing himself any favours by packaging them up like this either.

Do you know any more about this sale?

I'll take one; anyone want to make me an offer for the other six?

[fran4001]

That's all I have too. There is contact info there though.

Good opportunity for someone, not the best condition examples, so presume they'll be an affordable way to add a very rare violin to someones fold.

The '56 alone is crazy rare, and thought to be one of the first. I can't even recall the last time I saw one online or otherwise....
