The New Essential Parlor represents a new area of innovation with Hohner guitars. 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 woods and then match the solid Sitka spruce tops with similarly resonant mahogany backs. Combining this process with a micro thin finish produced a powerful, rich singing tone that makes even the small bodied parlor sound huge. The Essential Parlor is also equipped with the Earvana Compensated Tuning System. This special nut and bridge assures that these guitars play with dramatically improved intonation, up and down the length of the neck making them a pleasure to play. All Hohner Essential guitars go through a 12 point inspection process at Hohner?s US facility to make sure every guitar is set up to sound and play great. Height: 18 Width: 0 Weight: 6.15
