COURTESY OF BOB COCOZZA, FLORIDA, USA:

RESTORED BY & PHOTOS COURTESY OF JAMES PAYZE, SUFFOLK, ENGLAND

 

 

  The fully-restored guitar.      

 

Note: The trapeze tailpiece is probably a replacement for a stop-tailpiece, which was the usual type fitted to the 4579.

 

 

 

The center tone block can clearly be seen inside the guitar's body during restoration.

 

 Note the new metal nut, also fitted to several other Hofner solid and acoustic guitar models of the period.
