1980's HOFNER MODEL 4572/E2/V SEMI-ACOUSTIC GUITAR

 

 

COURTESY OF KARL GORMANNS, GERMANY:

 

 

 

In common with other archtops of this period, this guitar has been fitted with Schaller humbucking pickups. The vibrato tailpiece is Hofner's own factory-fitted unit.


Note the nut on this guitar is not a lamination as in earlier examples. 

 

The strap stud on this later version of the 4572 has a white plastic surround below the neck heel.
