1965 HOFNER VERITHIN
An original 1965 Verithin body, which has been striped to the bare wood and re finished in the brown/blonde look.
Different electrics and machine heads, and a new neck which is not correct for the year make for a very nice guitar, which I’m sure will play very well.
So a Verithin + parts.

1965 HOFNER VERITHIN
A nice example of a Verithin. One of the last 250 guitars made with this body shape.
The label says Bigsby, but the instrument has been retro fitted with a standard Hofner Lyre tailpiece, probably at the same time as the original tuners were swopped out for a set of Schaller tuners.
The case appears to be an original Selmer item and is a nice addition to this lovely guitar.
