Hofner - Handmade Master Thin President with Bigsby Tremolo

Hofner - Handmade Thin President with Bigsby Tremolo

Description - 

This Handmade Master Thin President from Höfner feels like a proper instrument, not something that was stamped out on an assembly line, but built by hand with attention to the little things that matter. The striped poplar body gives it a lively, open tone with clear mids and a nice top end, and the two humbuckers give you a wide sonic range: warm, rounded tones for jazz and blues, but also enough bite and punch for rock or lead work.

The Bigsby tremolo is that classic touch, smooth, musical vibrato that’s great for subtle colour and vintage-style phrasing. The finish is a glossy wood polish that shows off the grain without feeling flashy; it’s elegant and honest. Because it’s part of Höfner’s Master series and handmade, the fit and finish feel solid and thoughtful, the sort of guitar that plays like it was made for you.

In short: a handcrafted archtop with real character, striped poplar for tone, two humbuckers for versatility, and a Bigsby for expressive control, finished in a tasteful high-gloss that keeps the focus on the wood and the sound. Perfect if you want something that looks and plays like a properly made instrument.

Key highlights:

• Handmade Master Series construction for meticulous fit, finish, and attention to detail.
• Striped poplar body for lively resonance and an articulate tonal character.
• Two humbucking pickups for thick, full tone and wide tonal flexibility.
• Bigsby tremolo for smooth vibrato, vintage feel, and stage-friendly styling.
• High-gloss wood finish that showcases the grain and enhances the guitar’s premium look.
