NEW ARRIVAL Hofner guitars have become very collectable, and represent a great way of buying a cool vintage archtop without paying a high price. The Senator falls between the entry level Congress and top of the range President - a sign of this is the binding on the body and inside the f-holes like the President, but unbound neck and headstock like the Congress. This example is in good condition, with a really vivid sunburst, and is all original apart from one changed tuner button. The guitar has a great tone, voiced well for blues, jazz and swing. The neck feels very comfortable and the action is low and easy to play, which is unusual for older archtops. It comes in a non original hard case.
