We are very pleased to finally offer this beautiful, vintage Colorama for sale following a comprehensive refurb which included restoration of the fretboard radius, pickup service and rewinding, and a complete refret with medium jumbo frets for a more modern feel and performance.
Based on information provided by vintagehofner.co.uk, we believe this to be a Colorama III. These were produced circa 1961-'62 and distributed by Selmer in the UK. The Colorama III boasts a solid wood body, mahogany set neck, rosewood fingerboard, and six-sided headstock (ours is missing its original truss rod cover). This is the twin "toaster" pickup model with the standard Höfner control console and a trapeze tailpiece.
It is in excellent condition: the body and finish have aged well, and apart from some very slight sign of use the guitar is virtually unmarked. This really is a classy-looking vintage guitar with character of sound and tone to match.
Specifications of second-hand items, which we sell without UK tax under the HMRC Margin Scheme, are established to the best of our knowledge.
