Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
This Höfner is a seriously well-made instrument, clearly aiming for that classic Italian cello sound. The Guadagnini inspiration gives it a warmth and projection that's ideal for students and advancing players looking for a premium-priced, traditionally voiced acoustic. It’s a lovely cello, but understand it's a purely acoustic instrument - no pickups here.
