I wasn't able to pull the pickup out to see if there was anything wrong under the bridge pickup inside, but I went ahead and waited on getting the guitar to see your guys' opinions on the bridge pickup. The pickup literally just sat in there, and if i were to flip over the guitar the only thing holding it in was the strings.
That and the bridge pickup seemed to be a brand new one (probably stock that the old owner just put in there before pawning it). Only thing I come to realize is that the bridge pickup didn't work and the upper backplate on the back was gone. They let me play the guitar this time and the neck pickup sounded fantastic. The selector switch was a bit crooked too. The volume control knobs were completely different. It didn't have the gold pickups nor a gold bridge like the HG-430LP-S within the image above. The tuning peg for the G string was completely different from the other ones.
It had the MOP Inlays and the very subtle line on the side like you indicated CN. I went to take a look at it and it seems to be one of the HG-430LP-S. Please post pics if you end up with the guitar! The mahogany bodied guitar will have a MOP inlayed Hohner script. The headstocks look similar, but the plywood guitar will have a slightly longer headstock and the Hohner script will be a gold decal. If you see one very faint line in the side of the guitar, then this is a mid-late 70's MIJ guitar (with a mahogany pancake construction - a very nice guitar.) BUT, if you see several lines, then it is a plywood body and not worth your time. Heres a few pics,the serial number is C101180,im guessing the C.
(Their numbering system began with “H” for 1.). The first letter indicates the last digit of the year of production. Serial numbers on Yamaha guitars repeat every ten years due to the way they are formed. Hofner serial numbers 1975 to 1986 - Serial Numbers 75-86. Guitars distributed through the UK dealer The Selmer Company 1957 to 1971 - Selmer Serial.
