# TOKAI HES-180 Semi-aco / Search: ES-335, ES-180
・HES180 is a higher class line than the regular line ES series, and I think it is difficult to get it even secondhand now.
・I only played it a little after getting it, but I haven't had a chance to sell it since.
The HES180 is a model that is a more vintage version of Tokai's well-established ES series.
In order to get closer to the vintage sound, we profiled the front pickup position from a 50's model. Adopts "The Fifty Nine" pickup newly developed for the HLS series. "The Fifty Nine" is a pickup that has been completed by selecting the individual sound that is considered to be the best among many PAFs and thoroughly "filling the sound" to get closer to the best sound. The coating is an ultra-thin urethane finish that is surprisingly 1/3 thinner than conventional paint. We make the most of the sound, which is important for semi-acoustic guitars.
The neck, which creates the fullness essential to the ES sound, uses a 1-piece mahogany and Madagascar rose fingerboard. delrin nut,
Jescar frets give the sound a brighter start and brightness.
