| Buy this guitar here... www.nevadamusic.co.uk The Hofner Club guitar hails from the 1960's and is officially a semi-acoustic model due to the chambered body, it was a favourite of both John Lennon and George Harrison back then but has now been re-issued as a contemporary model and is depicted here in an attractive Cherry Red finish ... It uses a Spruce top with the sides made from Laminated Maple, the fret board is Rosewood that uses inlaid dots for fret orientation. There's a "Trapeze" style tail piece whilst the floating bridge is made from Rosewood just like the 22 fret fretboard, all hardware is Nickel plated and it also sports two Hofner Diamond humbucking pick-ups. The pick-ups are managed via a master tone and master volume rotary control that sit each end of 3 "slider" type switches that are used to activate the individual pick-up configurations ... The cosmetics of this instrument use a Pearloid scratchplate and control panel whilst the body is bound at the edges, the machine heads are Hofners own nickel plated die-cast models and the headstock has an ornate floral design embossed upon it adjacent to the truss-rod cover that bears the name of the instrument ...
