Im on here trying to find out the same thing your trying to find out. Evidently they arent worth a whole hell of alot cuz the most Ive seen one going for was $100 but yours looks in better shape than mine.
I got this guitar in black with gold hardware. Picked it up for $100 at a tag sale. Replaced the tuners with grover 18:1 ratio, and put in a high output parson street overwound bridge humbucker. all parts from stew-mac. Guitar plays like a dream. Worth a lot more than $100. great guitar.
@footer317 Hey man I have the same exact guitar you are describing the white edge pieces are yellowed pretty bad. Hve you any idea of what year it was made?
To be honest not really. I got it at a tag sale. The guy said it was from the 70's. I assume it would be due to the lawsuits after that era. I'm guessing mid to late 70's though.
you prolly dont need the info anymore but it looks like you got a left handed honer L59... not really sure what was up with these but ive never seen two that are exactly the same, therefore its kinda hard to price but ive seen similar condition with new pickups from private sellers priced about $200 to $500 i have no idea if they got their asking price tho
i have one similar but it's black... it was my first guitar i ever played in 1997.. i sold it to a friend.. he moved to the UK.. my wife just bought it back from him...
I got 1 last month on ebay for $113.It was part of an estate sale. Its seen better days(broken neck) but my guitar guy is restoring it so it will be a player. I don't like 'new' stuff and I hate reissues or anything that is labeled vintage because a guitar was actually played and not stored in a vault for 30yrs. These old Hohners are hard to date as the serial #s usually mean nothing but I will tell you that most I belive were made in Japan from late 60's-early 1980's. Good luck bro!! Nice axe!
I have one that has a very similar finish and neck. My headstock is slightly different and the brand is "Cameo". I think a bunch of these LP copy guitars were made in the same factory in Japan and sold under different brands. Mine has the original covered humbucker pickups "I've heard they might actually be single coils in disguise". I got mine today for $150.00. I think these non Greco LP's are worth about that depending on the condition. I think they will slowly go up in value.

What you have is a Hohner L75. The 75s had bolt on necks.
