Description

The perfect travelling companion just got even better – introducing the new Hofner Shorty Deluxe. Offering versatility and convenience in the one compact package, the deluxe model offers the same full-scale length and small overall dimensions as the original model, making it ideal for playing anywhere, anytime, on the couch or on the road. What takes the Shorty Deluxe to the next level is the addition of twin Humbucker pick-ups, giving an extended range of tonal values to get the sound and warmth you want. It looks just as great as it sounds, with a new headstock design reflecting the classic Hofner style.

This guitar will fit most overhead lockers in aircraft and comes with a durable, padded Höfner gig bag.

To change the strings on a Shorty guitar, it is necessary to remove the bridge to change the strings. Completely slacken all strings and remove them from the tuners. Slacken the 2 large bridge retaining screws, pull back the bridge and lift it out. The old strings can now be removed and new strings can be placed through the underside of the bridge. Replace the bridge and gently tighten the 2 screws. The new strings can now be wound onto the appropriate tuners.
