1963 Hopf – Saturn 63 – ID 5716

The Saturn 63 is an example of independent German guitar making in the 1960s. While many manufacturers were strongly oriented towards American models, Hopf Hopf went its own way here, with a design that is still immediately recognizable today.
The unusual body shape, the special sound openings and the striking hardware give the guitar its very own character - both visually and in terms of sound.
The lightweight thinline body ensures an open, airy response, while the short scale length of 620 mm offers a very pleasant playing feel.
The very stable, multi-piece neck made of glued spruce wood is also interesting in terms of construction.
