Vintage 1958 Hofner Committee Blonde Birds Eye Electric Guitar
Vintage 1958 Hofner Committee Blonde Birds Eye Electric Guitar
This beauty came to me in a mess and had been in a loft from decades. It was very nearly thrown in the bin before I rescued it! There were pearl inlays missing, and the pickup was missing, the neck was cracked and had an amateur ‘repair’. It’s now been put through it’s paces with a new ‘old’ Hofner pickup, wired to the original plate on the guitar, a reset neck now sturdier than ever, some hand made pearl inlays made, and a good clean and setup. Now you have a well used and well worn Hofner Committee from 1958. It’s a real piece of guitar history and a lovely guitar at that! Please have a close look at the high resolution photographs below, as these form part of our description.

The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products).
We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit.
It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving.
The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
