MVC-329S | This is a Hofner Flamenco, with a serial number that places it's manufacture in 1957. I've had it since 1964 when I bought it second-hand for GBP 10. It had a pickup on it, and metal strings; a no-no for a flamenco guitar, which is very light in construction. It turns out that it is also strong because it still has metal strings, and has been treated badly throughout its life. Especially during the student years. The headstock cracked at some stage, but this was repaired with some decent glue, and it still plays OK. Download
