Hohner Professional PJ Bass

Hi there,

I’m hoping to find out when and where my bass guitar was made please. I believe it’s from the 1980s and was manufactured either in Japan or Korea.

Model: Hohner Professional PJ Bass
Serial Number: 9043937

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,

Liam

Hi Liam
I’ll check it out and get back to you

Thank you, Steve. Much appreciated.

@SteveBaker any luck, please?

The head of service will be back at work on Monday, so I expect I’ll hear from him then.

Hohner Service tells me your bass was built in 1989 in Korea. Here the available specs:

21 nickel silver frets
bolt on one-piece Canadian rock maple neck / Indian rosewood fingerboard
colour: black (RN), white (MN), metallic red
Korean strings
2 HP single coil BS-5 + BS-6 (PJ-style)
vol/vol/tone
chrome hardware
graphite nut

Hope that helps,

cheers
