Hohner SE400

I have a Hohner SE 400 professional Jazz hollow body guitar, Tobacco Sunburst. There is no serial number, I even called Hohner and they confirmed that there is no number.

The guitar is made in the mid '90s,the numbers are low for how many were made. It sold for $950.00 American new.

This guitar is in excellent shape. I paid $375.00 for it in a pawn shop with the original case. I don't have a pic of mine yet to post. I wasn't looking for this type of guitar, but it was too nice to pass up.

Wold you know what the value of one of these guitars are in excellent condition, Thanks for any info... Art
