Hofner Contemporary Verythin Guitar - Sunburst Reviews
If you want the airy yet earthy sound only a great semi-hollow can provide, then you'll absolutely love the classic-sounding Hofner Contemporary Verythin Guitar. Plus, as its name implies, this guitar's ultra-shallow (1.25") body depth makes for an uncommonly comfortable playing experience. In fact, this is one of the slimmest semi-hollowbody profiles we've carried at Sweetwater. You also get a pair of rich-sounding Hofner humbucking pickups, a beautiful flame maple top, distinctive fret markers, and rock-solid hardware. The Hofner Contemporary Verythin's tonality will please everyone from '60s pop aficionados to modern rockers and beyond.

beyond WOW
I know my reviews are beginning to sound like a broken record.....but this one is very special. First impression....fantastic HARD case that not even the very expensive guitars are including now. Great looking case, wonderful protection with the "Hofner name" proudly displayed.
Then I opened the case....again, BLOWN AWAY with the fit, finish, TWO sets of knobs to choose from (who else does that?) this guitar looked like a guitar costing 5 times the price. Then I picked it up.....another pleasant surprise. VERY thin (the thinnest of all of my hollow bodies) with a nice weight.
Okay, so I figured at this price they must have invested everything in it's appearance....WRONG AGAIN.
Plugged it in, turned it up LOUD facing my Marshall full stack an NO feedback!!! It was love at first strum....
This guitar plays like buttah. Action is low, neck is fast, perfectly balanced and the electronics are incredible!!!!!! My first Hofner.....WHY hasn't anyone told me about these. FAR superior in my opinion to my ES-335's and other hollow bodies. I now have a NEW number ONE hollow body.
Don't let the low price fool you. If you can afford a Gibson.....save your money and buy this one. You won't be sorry.
There is a reason there are ONLY 5 star reviews on this one...we don't get paid to write this stuff.
Thank you to Ryan Holquist for a great deal, great service and personal attention to your customers.
I'm knocked out by this guitar!!!
The electronics in this guitar is out of this world...Never expected it to sound and play this well. Love the block inlays and the finish as well. Guitar is very narrow and light and that's a bonus too!!!
