The Service Dept. doesn’t have any information on this model, except that it was manufactured between the mid 1990s and 2005. I assume from the dates that it was built in Indonesia. Sorry not to be more helpful!
Cheers, Steve
It’s an HS-40, not an HS-10.
Thank you yes the print is very light but just reviewd it once again and yes infact it is HS-40
I suspect yours is similar to the one on the right in the 2007 US catalogue. The model had been recently redesigned and the pickup selector switch was moved next to the control knobs rather than on the bottom horn as it had been previously.
I passed the correct model designation on to Hohner Service, which meant they were able to identify your instrument as built in 2005. Below are the available specs.
Cheers
