If a serial number is not in the lists or is not recognized in the serial number decoder, it does not mean that the guitar is a fake. Conversely, it is of course no guarantee whether the guitar is authentic, as a serial number is easy to copy. Example of a Gibson serial number: A real serial number is stamped dark on the back of the headstock. The serial numbers on these seem more randomly generated and sellers listing them on Ebay seem to be under the impression that they are mid-1980s models. I don't think they are.

Hi,
Hohner began producing electric guitars. The Pro Harp was another model that was in Hohner's handmade. The bottom cover plate has the serial numbers from.

Maybe you've already sold this, but in case you haven't I just want to drop in my 2 cents. These guitars are known to be very hard to date exactly (I have one myself and have spent a fair bit of time on the web researching them), but generally are agreed to date between mid-70s and mid-80s.
If you look on the Mylespaul.com forums you'll see that these guitars are very highly regarded by LP enthusiasts, and I've seen multiple mentions of 250-300 being something of a steal. Many of these threads are a few years old, and I get the sense a certain hype has built for these guitars, plus yours looks to be pristine. So I think you should be able to bring in well more than that.
Some of these Hohner LPs are made with the pancake mahogany construction, which I understand are the prized ones. On one of those MLP forum threads someone described that this construction is indicated by a single, very faint line which can be seen running along the middle of the edge of the guitar.
Hope you land a good deal for it, and it goes to someone who appreciates a fine instrument!

- Looks like it might be an L75.
More than that I can't tell. Only that some mint examples are to be rarely found. some are the nicest looking LP's I've ever seen.Originally Posted by Expressway to yr Skull
Some things just can't be apologized enough for. James Blunt is one of them. - Its pretty hard to find info on these guitars. I have one (see attached pic). Great guitars especially since they are cheap.
Mine has no serial no on the headstock but has a serial no on the control cavity plastic cover. Mine is the L59 model (which I assume is supposed to be based on a 59 Les Paul).
I've also played a Hohner L90 which is a Les Paul Gold Top copy with p90s. This guitar was awesome too.
Does yours have any writing on the truss rod cover? That is where mine has L59 written on it.
So sorry I can't help with any more info than this. I've looked and come up empty, no one seems to know much about these. I'm pretty sure they were only made for a brief time in the eighties.
My advice is to refret it. Great guitars.My dad says I've got more guitars than girlfriends
Better dead than smeg! - Nice guitar Pengrin! Do you play it much?
The L90 really catches my eye. I'd love to have one of those.
From what I've gathered the professional series were first made in Great Britain then production moved to Korea. I don't know anything about looking up serial numbers or anything. - WOAAAH! That IS a nice guitar :-)
Yeah , i reckon its gonna ge re-fretted, rebound, and may well have the inlays done, as it seems whoever had it before has replaced what was in there for PLASTIC. Not very well done either.
It has a serial no on the back of the headstock (see attached pic), The truss rod cover is not there so no info on that. I may well have to buy this off the owner once its fixed - I don't reckon i'll ever afford a gibson - this may well be adequate, it sounds lovely :-)
Penguin - how does yours compare to the real thing?things I do:
Whisper in the Riot
www.BrutallicA.co.uk
www.rugbyrocks.co.uk - It would probably cost as much or more than the guitar is worth to have the binding replaced. Refretting won't be cheap either but may be worth it. The inlay work could be costly as well.

www.rugbyrocks.co.uk - Thanks for the compliments on my guitar. It was the second electric I ever bought. At the time I bought it as I wanted an LP but couldn't afford a Gibson. OVer time I have come to realise how good a guitar it is.
Compared to a Gibson I actually prefer mine. Not because of quality (I think Gibsons have slightly better quality) but because of the differences between a true LP and mine. Firstly the body is slightly thinner than a Gibby, not by much but it feels more comfortable to me. Mine has binding front and back on the body which I think looks great. Also the archtop on mine is not a solid top. It is flame maple but there is a hollow between the maple cap and the mahogony body. I like to think this helps with resonance and blah, blah, blah. I have no proof of this, just something I like to think.
It weighs a ton too, its far heavier than any guitar I have ever played. This seems to always put the neck in the perfect playing position when strapped on.
In short, its probably the best guitar I've ever played. I added the Bigsby since I really wanted a Bigsby at one stage. I think LPs with Bigsby's look fantastic. It also now has Kent Armstrong humbucker sized P90 pickups. These sound awesome.
When I bought it, it had zebra humbuckers. THe sales guy told me they were Duncans, which at the time I believed but later realised he was full of ****************. They weren't the best sounding pickups. I tried many pickups in this guitar but liked the P90s in it best. Best balance of good sounding clean and dirty sounds.
If you ever find one, buy it. I tried to buy an L90 of a guy I knew, bastard knew what I knew about them (that they are great) so he wouldn't sell it.My dad says I've got more guitars than girlfriends
Better dead than smeg! - excellent, then i'll definately make sure i casn get a hold of this one once its done :-)
Out of interest, are bigsby's difficult/expensive to fit?things I do:

This was common practice for a long time (could still be) on budget LP copies as it meant that a flat ply-piece could be used for the top and bent, not requiring carving out like a solid cap does.
I think now most do have a solid cap carved from alder or similar with a maple veneer a la Epiphone instead (presumably advancements in CNCD have made this viable at the budget price point).MOTGLHC

Bigsby's aren't too hard or expensive to fit. The biggest cost with mine was buying the Bigsby. You can leave the holes where the tailpiece fits but I had my luthier fill them. Its fairly simple to fit one if you don't care about the holes from the old tailpiece. Simply fit it and screw it on. Its really quite straight forward. Depending on where the tailpiece sits on the guitar, you might have to remove the tailpiece bushes if they interfere with where the Bigsby sits.My dad says I've got more guitars than girlfriends
Better dead than smeg!- Nice, cheerz.
I've never used a bigsby - how much play do they give you? And wht is the tuning stabiity like?
Also, i am looking forward to playing some FILTH on thsi bad boy. Whiskey in the Jar is gonna be Oh So SWEETthings I do:

Pengrin it looks like its the original plastic nut, mine worned out after one year.
it's my first guitar, I bought it 11 years ago and it's still my main axe..it really needs a fret job
I'm too lazy to take new pics; I replaced the EMG with the original HB and I also put the pickguard back.
I'm addicted to its thin D-shape neck
The serial is probably on the neckplate - these are hefty cast metal with the Hohner Pro logo & stamped on serial number. A C prefix will almost.
Hohner Guitars
Hohner has been making moderately priced acoustic guitars since the 1970s. Beginning players favor them for their inexpensive pricing and solid construction. Playing a Hohner guitar has at least one major disadvantage, however--It's impossible for a Hohner owner to tell for certain when the guitar was made. Unlike other guitar makers that use specifically coded serial numbers to signify a guitar's month and date of production, no such system exists for Hohner guitars. Dating a Hohner guitar requires the owner to describe the instrument in detail and ask the company to estimate the date of manufacture.
Describe your guitar in writing. Note whether its strings are nylon or steel and note the body style. Dreadnaught acoustic guitars, for example, curve out from both sides of the neck, while a cutaway curves downward on one side. Write down the model name (this may be in a pamphlet, or even on the price tag from the store.) Also note whether the guitar contains a pickup for amplification.
Photograph key parts of your guitar. Guitars distinguish themselves in several areas: the headstock (where the tuners turn the strings), the bridge (which attaches the strings to the body), and the inlays (the dots, diamonds or other markings on the fretboard.) Make sure the photographs show as much detail as possible. Take several, and take them up close.
Mail the photos and written description to Hohner. If you hand-wrote your notes and took hard-copy pictures, enclose them in an envelope and address them to Hohner Inc., with a note saying you wish to determine how old your guitar is. The address is 1000 Technology Park Drive, Glen Allen, VA 23059-4500.
Send the photos and notes electronically. If you took the pictures digitally, attach them to the body of an email along with the written description of your guitar and a short note saying you would like to determine your guitar's date of manufacture. The email address is webinfo@hohnerusa.com
Information gathered from the web:
Serial numbers on Yamaha guitars repeat every ten years due to the way they are formed.
The first letter indicates the last digit of the year of production. (Their numbering system began with “H” for 1.)
The second letter indicates the month.
The first two numbers indicate the day of the month.
Hohner Professional Guitar Serial Numbers Pictures
The last three numbers represent order of production on the day the guitar was made.
Example: hm02316 = the 316th unit made on June 2 of 1961, 1971, 1981, 1991, or 2001.
