Hohner Review: Baton Rouge

Hohner Electric Guitars



History:

Purchase: I bought this axe of ebay for 200$. I already had a Hw440 acoustic/elec and was pleased by its sound so i figured I might as well buy another Hohner.

What I Like About This Hohner Baton Rouge: It plays very well for a 200 dollar guitar. My friend has LP studio and he said it's about the same, with a little higher action. Great sound, easy to play and good tuners.

What I Do NOT Like About The Hohner Baton Rouge: Only has 2 knobs. Volume and tone. Nothing really not to like.

Hohner Baton Rouge Quality Rating: This thing comes with to standard humbuckers, a fixed bridge, tone volume control and a 3 postion switch. The body is a cherry sunburst that resembles the LP style. The neck is amazing! Maple with a rosewood fretboard, it's very fast. the frets are laid out well, with no edges to rub on. The tuners hold their well also.



Review Summary: Sounds great, cheap and looks like 600 bucks, whats not to like?

Rating of this Hohner product: 5
