This guitar is a mint example of the President series. The New President represents the pinnacle of the guitar maker's art. Exquisite woods - from the hand-carved, solid German spruce to the flamed maple back and sides - render a statement of physical beauty.
Hofners President series establishes the current models as worthy successors to their legendary namesake which, as celebrated examples of premium European archtops, are owned by renowned and influential jazz guitarists. While many design elements of Hofners President series have a traditional flair, several features - such as the 16th fret neck-to-body joint and the 24 fret fingerboard - distinguish them from ordinary jazz guitars.
