Ultra-Comfortable Body Design. The HNS1 features the sleek HILS NS body shape—ergonomic, compact and designed to feel natural in any playing position. It's lightweight at 6lbs without ever sounding thin, and keeps things functional and simple where it matters. In addition to strong and lightweight construction, the HNS1 sports a dual-locking headpiece, standard 6-saddle hardtail bridge and roller-bearing tuning barrels to deliver stable tuning with effortless adjustments. A 25.5" scale, maple C-shape neck (42mm nut width) and compound-radius (12" to 15.75") rosewood fretboard create a fast yet controlled playing surface, with extra jumbo stainless-steel frets that stay slick and durable for years. For real-world versatility, Alnico V single coils in the neck and middle deliver warm, expressive, vintage-leaning clarity, while a ceramic humbucker in the bridge brings power, punch and cut when you step on the drive—all selectable via 5-way switching. Finished in satin ruby red with a smooth-feeling neck and a hardtail bridge you can trust, the HNS1R comes with a deluxe gig bag included. Parchment pickguards are also available separately in our Parts and Accessories area.
