Guitar
This Colorama has obviously been modified with Dimarzio pickups - however if you put nickel covers on these humbuckers you could regain most of the vintage appeal of this guitar. Colorama's are rare in the United States - mostly found in England and Europe - so you'll be the only indie kid on the block with one - and it'll sound like a Les Paul with those DiMarzio's in there.

ELECTRIC GUITAR ....Hofner 1963 "colorama".....this baby has a rock hard maple neck, with less than could be expected wear. its got a real pretty red/ black burst, which is how i got it back in 1975. (so was it a refin. i don't know). it plays real sweet, though i did have new Dimarzio p.u.'s put in that year so they are true "vintage" dimarzio's,( but i did have all those mini switches removed as they were quite noisy)! it does however have that unique hofner through body tremelo,and plate which has no pitting at all on it as you can see!!!! and that is all original! its in marina del rey area...we're asking $325.00 obo...(and i'll toss in a gig bag with the deal)...call jack @(310)397 7126 ..and lets make a deal, (she needs a new home)

This seller is offering an unfamiliar solid body electric that he says is from the 1950's and has Hofner pickups. I don't know if Hofner even made any solid body electric back in the 1950's so this may well be a one off or homemade guitar...
- Hofner "master" Classical Acoustic In St. Cloud Minn For $100

This seller is offering a rare and funky Hofner solid-body electric form the 1960's. I used to have a Hofner COlorama and it had the "vinyl striping" around it like this one which means it should also have the "plastic coating" on the body. This is...
- Beautiful 1960's Hofner Nylon String Acoustic In Fresno Ca For $195
This is certainly a beautiful guitar. I used to ignore nylon string acoustics but I recently picked up a 30 year old Brazillian DiGiorgio at a yard sale and I now love playing it (and yes it has real Brazillian rosewood back and sides). The wood on this...
