1970's HOFNER MODEL 457 ACOUSTIC

 

COURTESY OF : TONY BRADY, UK:

Note: The electrics on this guitar are not original. It would have left the factory as a fully acoustic archtop. However, everything else is original, including the pickguard.

 

Note the neck joint - very much changed from the full depth joints on previous 457's. Also the single-piece maple neck construction.
