The most handsome 1966 Hofner Model 164 on the planet. Period. It's not even close.


Chipboard case included as well as original white pickguard equipped with all stock/original components as pictured.


Upgraded/Updated 1966 Hofner Model 164. This guitar is too cool and so unbelievably handsome. The upgrades keep the mojo alive and well while really keeping the classic spirit and tone intact.


Upgrades/Updates:


Hand-Formed American Bison Bone Nut

Custom "H" Logo Engraved Chrome Knobs

Chrome Bowtie Baseplate

Chrome Adjustable Bridge

Chrome Pure Tone Multi-Contact Jack

Vintage/NOS .033uF K40Y-9B PIO Capacitors

Pickups and Tuning Machines are original. Pickups measure approximately 5.1K, equipped with that unmistakable vintage Hofner tone. Surprisingly simple Trem has been rebuilt and in perfect working order. Neck health, action, and playability are very very nice.


This is a great example of a classic, lightweight, solid body guitar. A real everyday, every occasion player and just a lot of fun to play.


Guitar comes completely setup and will be freshly restrung with 11s. Will be shipped UPS, insured for full value, prepared, and packed at UPS by staff.


My partner at Rad-Mod really got on me for going over budget on this mod/rebuild, but sometimes the instrument tells you what it needs, and if you're me, you listen.


I mean, look at this thing. Just beautiful.
