Höfner President

Single-cutaway hollow-body archtop electric guitar

A hollow-body archtop electric guitar made by the German maker Höfner, produced from the mid-1950s into the early 1970s. One of Höfner's best-known vintage electrics, it was offered in full-depth and thinline bodies and in non-cutaway and Florentine-cutaway forms, with pickups that evolved across the production run. George Harrison played a Höfner President early in his time with The Beatles.
