Hozen Guitar Build Overview

The Hozen 000 Short Scale Torrefied Sitka / Mahogany 12-Fret #2301-1058 is a boutique-level instrument designed for players who value comfort, responsiveness, and a warm, vintage-inspired tonal character. Featuring a solid torrefied Sitka spruce top paired with solid mahogany back and sides, this guitar delivers a dry, woody voice with strong fundamentals, clear mids, and a quick, responsive attack.

Built around a 12-fret 000 body with a 630mm short scale, this guitar offers a relaxed feel with reduced string tension and effortless playability. The 12-fret design shifts the bridge into the lower bout, enhancing resonance and warmth while bringing the player’s left arm into a more natural, comfortable position. Paired with traditional scalloped X-bracing and a dovetail neck joint, the result is a lively, open tone that responds easily to even the lightest touch.

Lightweight and highly musical, this instrument excels in both fingerstyle and light strumming applications. The clean, understated aesthetic—featuring ebony binding, a wood-and-maple rosette, and refined purfling—highlights its boutique craftsmanship. Reinforced with a carbon fiber mahogany neck, this build offers long-term stability while maintaining a vintage-inspired feel.
