Members gaspergoo Posted March 27, 2009 Members Share Posted March 27, 2009 I got mine for $20 . Its kinda a semi hollow body this gives it a cool sound. Stock DiMarzios. Needs new electronics, fret leveling. I replaced the tuners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Guitar_stringer Posted March 27, 2009 Members Share Posted March 27, 2009 I also had a Hondo II many years ago. It was an acoustic however. A Maple Jumbo, with a Maple fingerboard. It wasn't a bad guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 59humbucker Posted March 27, 2009 Members Share Posted March 27, 2009 I've not got any pics, but I've got a hondo II LP special style that's a natural finish in lots of differrent woods (Alembic sylee not plywood!) It sounds great but needs some setup work, over all though, pretty solid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Verne Andru Posted March 27, 2009 Members Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hondo is/was a brand of today's Cort, along with Samick, Jay Turser, etc. Cort is the latest name for the company setup by Jack Wiesberger [sp?] that was best known for the Tiesco brand in the 60's. Cort today is one of the largest OEM makers of MI. Any instrument that says made in Indonesia is made by Cort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
