This was most likely sold branded as Hohner or possibly Moridaira's own Morris brand. Some knob's sanded & filthed-up the neck to try & make it look old - these, like pretty much all Jap copies, had bomb-proof poly finishes which would never, ever wear like that. Nice enough Jap copy but should never sell for more than £200 even in good original condition. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noirpunk Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Looks very Sid Vicious. Not worth anywhere near that! I'd give him £50 anyday for it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelk27 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 As I read the listing, he implies it's an original 70s Fender, not a re-issue. That would be some achievement, given Fender Japan didn't come into being until 1982. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
