Amazingly Resonant
These guitars are built utilizing a revolutionary technique Hohner calls
frequency matching. Hohner's technicians utilize a form of tap tuning to determine the resonant frequencies of the wood and then match the solid spruce tops with similarly resonant mahogany backs and sides. The result is a guitar that is unusually resonant, producing a rich, singing, tone that makes even the small bodied Parlor and Folk guitars in the Essential series sound huge. These guitars feature a micro-thin finish and pick guards were left off in order to encourage the vibration of the tops. Quality of sound was sacrosanct. These guitars were kept cosmetically simple, Hohner chose to invest in perfecting the manufacturing process.
In Tune
Guitars by their very nature play consistently out of tune. In the first position, play an E chord and it sounds perfectly in tune, play a D chord and it's a little out, play an A chord and it may sound so badly out of tune that you want to tune up again. This only gets worse as you play up the neck. To rectify this situation, Hohner has equipped each Essential model guitar with the Earvana Compensated Tuning System. This special nut and bridge assures that these guitars play with perfect intonation, up and down the length of the neck making them a pleasure to play.
Inspect what you Expect
Each Essential guitar goes through a 12-point inspection at Hohner's US Facility in VA to insure that every guitar is set up to sound great. Intonation, action, and overall quality are carefully checked.
