Hofner S3 N with Vibrato.
This is a 1980's guitar
in virtually Mint condition.
Hofner made
the S3 N between 1979 - 86. They seem only
to have been made in small numbers and are quite rare.
This one is made of Ash with a single piece, bolt-on Maple
neck and looks and plays just like new. It
has 3 single coil Schaller pickups, two at the neck
and the third at the bridge. The second neck
pickup is wired out of phase and the independent toggle
switches mean that you can achieve 7 different settings.
Some interesting tone possibilities there!
Hofner
offered a tailpiece mounted Vibrato as a factory option but
a replacement Schaller Floyd Rose type has been fitted.
