The HERO’s bound mahogany body and carved top speak to tradition, while dual alnico humbuckers deliver vintage-inspired power with exceptional clarity. The roasted maple neck and stainless steel frets offer enhanced stability and sustain, letting your notes ring out. The sculpted neck heel makes reaching the highest frets effortless, and the genuine Indian rosewood fingerboard and elegant block inlays add a touch of class.
The HILS America HERO celebrates a timeless design while updating the guitar for modern players. Whatever your style, you get the best of single-cutaway performance in a modern, affordable instrument.
The HERO comes with a deluxe padded gig bag for secure transport.
