HILS HNT1 T-Style Headless Guitar

$499.00

HILS HNT1 — Classic Single-Coil Character in a Modern Headless Form

The HNT1 is your go-to headless for snappy, expressive single-coil tone with the comfort and balance of a compact modern design. Think classic T-style attitude, reimagined for players who want something lighter (6 pounds), tighter, and ready for long sets.

Indonesian mahogany, a comfortable C-shape maple neck, and stainless steel frets deliver a familiar feel with rock-solid reliability. The dual Alnico V single coils bring the chime, bite, and articulation that sit perfectly in a mix — from clean worship and country twang to gritty indie and blues.

What Makes HNT1 Special

1. Classic Single-Coil Voice, Modern Platform

The HNT1’s SS pickup configuration with Alnico V single coils (chrome-covered neck, open-bridge design) gives you:

  • Glassy, articulate neck tones

  • Snappy bridge bite with great attack

  • Mix-ready rhythm and lead tones that feel instantly familiar

All routed through a simple 3-way switch, Volume, and Tone — no fuss, just great sounds.

2. Headless Comfort with Traditional Feel

You get a 25.5" scale and C-shape hard maple neck (42mm nut width) that feels like home the second you pick it up, but in a compact HILS NT body that’s lighter, better balanced, and easier on your shoulder for long gigs or rehearsals.

  • Great for tight stages, travel, and fly dates

  • Perfectly balanced sitting or standing

3. Plays Fast, Stays Stable

  • Compound radius fretboard (12"–15.75") for easy chords down low and smooth bends up high

  • 22 jumbo stainless steel frets for durability and a slick feel

  • Dual-locking headpiece + custom 6-saddle hardtail for tuning stability and precise intonation

This is a guitar that stays out of your way and lets your hands do the talking.

4. Gig-Ready Build & Included Gig Bag

Built to be a working musician’s tool, not just a showpiece:

  • Indonesian mahogany body for warmth and punch

  • PPS nut for consistent tuning and tone

  • D’Addario EXL110 strings out of the box

  • Comes with a Deluxe gig bag so it’s ready for the road from day one

We do offer both black and parchment pickguards as an accessory if you want to swap the pickguard color. You can find them in the Accessories + Parts section.
