Weird Hofner Jazzica

[adamrhowe]

Hi, looking for any Hofner experts that might be able to do some detective work on this Jazzica?

I'm a big Jazzica fan and have come across this one for sale. The hardware has been changed and the serial number sticker is missing.

The listing states it has been refinished and restored but:

• there are no signs of the original volume and tone control holes on the body
• there are no signs of the original tuning peg screw holes

I think everything else looks correct?

Possibly a custom order?

I messaged the shop but no response.

Thanks!
