Hollowbody electric guitars, often referred to as jazz guitars, have deep, resonant tones and were among the first electrified instruments. Models like the Gibson L-5, Gretsch White Falcon, D’Angelico Excel, and Epiphone Casino are celebrated for their rich, warm sound. These guitars excel in jazz, blues, and rockabilly but can be prone to feedback at high volumes. With their distinctive, woody resonance, hollowbody guitars are a preferred choice for players seeking classic tones with a touch of acoustic depth.
