Höfner Green Line

 

Classical guitars in Höfner's Green Line Series are crafted exclusively from renewable European tone woods. Each model matches a selected solid German spruce top with a maple or walnut body, an alder neck and a walnut fingerboard. In addition, instruments in the Green Line Series are varnished using an environmentally neutral process. The HGL Series reflects Höfner's traditional art of guitar making and our respect for the limited resources of our environment.

 

Several thin layers of varnish are applied to the surface, maintaining the natural and pleasing 'feel of wood'. This is the optimum solution in terms of sound as the body of the instrument is allowed to resonate freely.

 

For the Höfner GREEN LINE classical guitars we use indigenous woods only:
walnut or maple for the resonance body and solid German spruce for the top.
The surface is treated with environment-friendly lacquers.
 

Outstanding test reports !

Höfner HGL 50 SE

 

For the soundboard of model HGL 50 SE, Höfner selected spruce trees from the “Forstamt Schluchsee” region of the Black Forest in Germany. After the guitar tops were professionally stored and naturally seasoned for more than 6 years, they were acoustically analysed and catalogued by the IFM (Institute for building musical instruments in Zwota, Germany). Höfner master luthiers picked only the choicest tops of this series for the limited production model HGL 50 SE.


The resonance body is made of solid walnut.
All bindings, even the knobs for the gold-plated machine-heads, are made of wood.

 

Please be prepared for extended delivery times, as this master instrument is hand-made in limited quantities
