The headstock logo kinda makes you do a double take, doesn't it? Walking a very fine line between copy guitars and outright forgery, this Gitison "The Paul" copy is a Hungarian made guitar, the work of one Mr. Tibor Turcsak (see another one of his guitars here).
This particular example of his work has a Honduras mahogany body, a flamed maple neck, and German-made Shadow humbuckers.
Currently listed on eBay with a starting price of €350.
Thanks again to Zirig Árpád for alerting me to this eBay auction.

- Another Of Höfner's Less Celebrated Guitars, The S3n
guitarz.blogspot.com: Following on from this post, here's another of Höfner's less celebrated guitars. The seller says this Höfner S3N dates to the 1970s or 1980s - my guess would be the 1980s simply because of the presence of Shadow pickups...
