Dear Sir or Madam,

I would like to seek more information about my Hohner guitar:
Hohner Professional ST59
Serial number: C211881

Can you guide me to the spec sheet of this guitar? Is there any information available about the woods and hardware?

Thank you in advance for your help and support!

Best Regards,
Stefan

It’s a 1992 model. The ATN version (with special tone circuitry) was introduced in 1992 so yours may be one of those. A good starting point for specs is https://hohner.de/fileadmin/documents/service/guitars/Gitarren_Hohner-HistoricalModels.pdf.

Thanks Steve!
I am about to change quite a lot of things on this guitar as it is my first electric guitar. However, it sounded very nice even with stock pick-ups. Great body and neck!
