    UTILIZATION

    The handle is a highway. I say this a bad setting for acute thus for me ca freez a little, you get a hell of a creamy blues, it's great you put a boss ds-2 or a big muff pi us and you get a great sound. The clean is very good (Lampl has a lot)

    SOUNDS

    Blue's style rock, funk rock, you can play anything with the guitar has a medium tone WELL GRAS what is nickel for my style of music. I play with a boss ds-2 big muff pi wha WH10 v2 EHX memory boy. I play on a blackheart head amp (marshall plexi style) and a 2x12 cab Celestion g12-75 I get a pretty decent sound. I love everything about this guitar except when my freez strings :)

    OVERALL OPINION

    For 9 months now that I use this guitar it has qualities but also default it is far better than the crap Gibson and current American fender. this is a very good guitar I do not know the brand hofner before but I am satisfied this was for a vintage guitar price may be exorbitant but the sound that comes out makes me forget the 850 balls! I would do probably the choice, but not the same model a galaxy hofner model 172 or 175 or the hofner guitars are guitars quite exceptional;)
