Come on people, these beauties are changing hands all the time and I love 'em. So many different looking models, different headstocks, pickguards, colours, woods, everything... so come on & upload a photo of your Hohners [and other P guitars you may have in stock!] lets try to get a good 'ol collection on here.

So here are mine; The Prinz [post fender headstock law suit model] from 1987ish I believe, and TE Prinz from the 90's Both purchased from other collectors over the last few months. The Cloud was my first ever guitar, got it from a dealer in MN for a $few$ but I do love it.

Best wishes to you all.

P.S. Found some very OLD posts about this, so old I can't even 'reply' to them so I wanted to start fresh.

I've been on the lookout for one of the original late 70's issue Hohner Mad Cat Teles or the H.S. Anderson Model as well... They are hard to find & very expensive if they're in good shape...

Which is your favorite of the reissues?

How much is something like that? If you don't mind me asking

@NEFRETIRI .... worth every cent!

It sure is, never thought I would get one. Love it.

NEFRETIRI said:

It was $799 but ended up paying one grand with postage to Australia.

I WANT ONE!!! Where did you get it?

I got it from Amazon I dont think they have any left but they do sell used ones every now and then or you can try ebay.

I'm afraid to buy something that expensive from sites like that :/ Would you trust ebay?

uhh, why would you not be able to trust amazon?

eBay has always worked out fine for me, 2 out of the 3 you see in the photos are from eBay, when they arrive, take them apart, clean and shine, and take to your local guitar tech for a complete service and pro set-up, they come back like new! the risk is how good it looks in the photos, 'cos you can always make them work [technically] if you really want one I guess it's a risk i was willing to take.

Do u need my address?

@ osxandy,

Thanks, the Hohner is not a real one. I bought this copy on Ebay, but it didn't look right. So I made a one on one copy of prince's pickguard which really hepled a lot. Also the thin stripe I put on there myself.

The one eyd bass is the same story. Bought a Warwick Thumb 4 snare copy on Ebay. Stripped it, painted it white, and spraypainted the eye on it.

Oh, and both guitars play great too!

The Acoustic guitar is a Dean, which looks just as the Taylor, but for a fraction of the price.........

Cheers!

Doc.

@ Feelgood [Doc]

Now I'm really interested! so you MADE a copy of the pickguard? I've done the same on the Telecaster you see on the right of the cloud in my photo [I cut the shape out by hand using the original as a template guide] But I could never find the proper leopard stock material that you've used. I guess you've used a perpex [plexiglass?] clear pick-guard and added the black paint on the reverse side?

Love it!

Very good guess osxandy!

Indeed I used some kind of -poly- material (can't remember the exact name). Not plexiglass, because you cannot drill a hole or it will break. I made a photocopy of the original pickguard and flipped it to the other side (mirrorside). I drew, and cut out simple tape for every spot that needs to be transparent (count them, haha!). Then I spraypainted the backside black. Let it dry and remove all the pieces of tape. Voila! It is practically a one-on-one copy Getting it all fit on the guitar was the hardest part. All in all, this is a good replica for a fair amount of money........

Cheers,

Doc.

This is not a Hohner, but it is Prince inspired. When Josh Dunham was playing bass for Prince, he used a Ritter Roya. Jens Ritter is a boutique luthier from Germany that hand builds a limited number of instruments each year. He was so impressed with Josh that he offered to buld him a custom design from the ground up. This is what they came up with. It is named "Cora", after Joshes wife, who was the drummer for Prince at the time.
