Hofner Jazzica Sunburst (Refinished) Archtop Hollow Body Electric Guitar Sunburst - Refurbished

This is a Hofner Jazzica Archtop Hollow Body Electric Guitar that has been refinished in Sunburst. The Hofner Jazzica is known for its playability and modern ergonomic design. The Tapered body provides a rich resonance, whilst still retaining maximum comfortability. Made in Germany, this guitar consists of a Spruce top, Flamed Maple back and sides, a Flamed Maple neck, and a 24-fret Ebony fingerboard. Other appointments include a Trapeze tailpiece, an Ebony bridge, Kluson tuners, and Gold hardware. The guitar features a floating mini humbucking pickup which is wired to pickguard-mounted volume and tone controls. The Flamed Maple neck plays well, with a profile that could be described as a substantial 'D' shape. The substantial neck profile provides a unique and characterful playing experience that is sure to inspire some fresh musical ideas. The Ebony fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, and with a highly practical 7.25" radius allows for smooth jazzy lines in all registers. The acoustic tone of the Hofner Jazzica is warm and gentle, delivering an understated yet detailed low end, clear mid range and bright but not brittle treble response that beautifully colours the overall sound of the instrument. The amplified tone provides a more powerful bass response, and is certainly traditional sounding for a hollow-body 'jazz box'. This is a wonderfully restored and highly playable instrument with a unique look, playing experience, and tone.
