Hello brothers/sisters of the Jam 
I was given a Contessa guitar by an old friend. I can’t seem to find any information on it. Was wondering if someone could tell me anything about it. If there was ever any information in the F hole it has been removed. Really would like to know who makes it, where was it made, and what year it was made. The only numbers I can find are on the neck plate on the back. Says it was made in Italy model number HG 111 V and a SN of N7251. I have included 1 pic (all I was allowed as a newbie I guess) of the neck plate. Any information on this instrument would be greatly appreciated!
Hohner Service says they don’t have any info linked to that serial number. They say the Hohner Contessa was manufactured between 1978 and 1985. Hope that helps.
