1958 Hofner Congress
Bought on ebay about 2 years ago. Beaufitul, and completely unplayable! This guitar has no truss rod at all.


Missing tuner - that's the first problem. I'm trying to source
some like for like (or even genuine replacements)

This pickup is a retrofit add-on.
Don't know if it's contemporary with the guitar.

Yes. The dust is original too!
Check out the action: this is what 50 years of use and abuse
does to glue and wood… especially if you don't fit a truss rod!
