Höfner Acoustic HA-CS7-RLC Classic Steel String

Handmade in Germany! A special ‘relic’ version of the HA-CS7 steel string acoustic created by our master in the violin making department, this instrument is beautifully aged to look authentically vintage but with all the advantages of a brand new guitar. The truly vintage look and feel of the remarkable aged finish is achieved by the use of very special and secret recipes.

A meticulous selection of wood as well as a newly developed bracing system has led to a wonderfully rich and dynamic sound.

The Mi-Si® active pickup system is discreetly fitted inside the body without any opening in the sides to preserve the subtle and natural aesthetics. Charging the condenser for just 60 seconds supplies you with up to 16 hours of playing time. Mi-Si® allows us to avoid an environmental impact caused by the use of batteries or accumulators while the built in Piezo provides a detailed and authentic sound reproduction.
