This vintage Höfner Hawaiian Standard lap steel guitar boasts a solid build with classic 1950s German craftsmanship and delivers a sweet sound through its original single-coil pickup for authentic tone. It features a beautiful sunburst nitrocellulose lacquer finish with charming vintage wear. Fully functioning with no scratchy pots, it has some lacquer imperfections (very common) but is in great cosmetic condition considering its age. It’s missing its cable (needed to play with an amplifier). While it could be modified, we prefer to keep it all original. Whether you're into Hawaiian tunes or just love unique instruments, this lap steel will make a great addition to your collection.
