My catalog dates from 1981 and I do not know anything about Hondo serial numbers. They say 'Hondo II' and 'Professional' on the headstock. Hi Alan I'm not sure if I can help you out, but I searched my files and the closest thing I could found was a 'Professional' series of instruments that included a lot of copies of American guitars.

Hondos have no value as far as I know,new or old. Hondo guitars started in Texas in the late 1960s, teaming up with the Korean company Samick to manufacture guitars to American. ![]() Yes, the serial number on the neckplate is consistent with Tokai, so it. Tokai was not used for all Hondo guitars and basses, just what was. ![]()
