Default 1960 Hoffner Senator Archback Jazz

Hi new member here,
Can anyone give me a heads up on the value of my 1960 Hoffner Senator Blonde arch back with original case ? In mint condition case is knocked around as expected but guitar is mint. Cheers. Dave

There are a few Hofner Senators from the late 50's going for $900 - $1700 on Reverb.

I paid $250 for mine, 1957 Senator in great shape, but that was 35 (my word) years ago now. Mine is pre-truss rod so it has a, lets say, challenging neck profile but I have big hands so it suits. If I was to try to sell it I'd ask in the $900 range. Mine had a neck reset and new frets just after I bought it, and that has stood the test of time very well.
