semi-hollow
A semi-hollow guitar is a type of electric guitar that features a solid center block surrounded by a hollow body. This design allows for a unique blend of acoustic and electric qualities, producing a warm, resonant tone while minimizing feedback. Semi-hollow guitars are popular among various music genres, including jazz, blues, and rock.
The construction of a semi-hollow guitar typically includes two f-holes on the body, similar to those found on acoustic instruments. Notable models include the Gibson ES-335 and the Fender Starcaster, both of which have become iconic in the music world for their versatility and sound.
