Hofner Guitars : The Verythin Standard

 
    The Hofner company was founded in 1887 and has enjoyed a rich history of stringed instrument building that has never been stronger than today!   

     The Verythin Standard pictured above is one of the Hofner company's most popular jazz guitars for the professional musician.  The ultra thin body makes it incredibly comfortable to hold,  while the double cutaway body design in tandem with a fast 22 fret neck makes access to the upper registers effortless!  This instrument addresses the age old problem of feedback by hand-fitting a light weight internal spruce sustain block between the top and back.  This increases the feedback threshold without killing the acoustic properties that add so much to a great jazz tone!   If you get a chance,  put an ear on these Hofner "Top Shelf" pickups.   They really do have great clarity even with the treble rolled off to a darker timbre!
