What do Eric Clapton, David Gilmour and Justin Hayward all have in Common?

They All Owned and Played a Hofner Club 60…

This rare 'Brunette' Club 60 weighs just 4.20 lbs and has a thirteen inch wide, two inch thick, semi-hollow body, lightly arched single-cutaway body. Two-piece natural spruce top (Hofner decal in gold with black trim on upper bass side) with a two-piece book-matched flamed maple back. The sides of the body and the back of the neck and head-stock are finished in black. One-piece mahogany neck with a scale length of 24 1/4 inches, a nut width of just over 1 9/16 inches and a very fat 'baseball-bat' profile. On the back of the headstock, stamped in blind is the serial number "670". The top of the body has six-ply binding and the bottom has four-ply binding. Ebony fretboard with 'triple-layer' nut, 'zero' fret and 22 original jumbo frets with inlaid three-piece mother-of-pearl position markers. Headstock with Inlaid mother-of-pearl "Hofner" and 'styalized bell-flowers'. Individual open-back tuners with rectangular ivoroid buttons. Two Hofner single-coil pickups with black bakelite cases on height-adjustable matching bases with outputs of 6.69k and 6.71k. Original tortoiseshell pickguard (Hofner decal in gold with black trim near lower edge) secured by one pin into the side of the neck and a metal bracket attached to the treble-side of the body. Two volume controls plus three 'slider' switches, all on rectangular tortoiseshell panel (edged in white) on treble bout. White plastic with gold top Hofner 'teacup' control knobs with securing grub screws. Hofner ebony bridge on ebony base with six individually adjustable individual saddles (actually lengths of fretwire). Hofner 'trapeze' tailpiece. Original Hofner leather strap fasteners. This rare little guitar is in exceptionally fine (9.00) condition with just some very light belt-buckle scarring on the back (nothing through the finish) and a few very small surface marks on the spruce top. Housed in a later four-latch, shaped black hardshell case with black plush lining (9.00).
