The HB45 features a double cutaway maple body and includes a solid maple block in the center, increasing sustain and minimizing susceptibility to feedback when the volume is high. The traditional F holes are not included in the design, which further reduces susceptibility to feedback and provides a cleaner look overall. It features a maple neck with a 22 fret rosewood fingerboard and split block inlays. The gold hardware includes a tune-o-matic bridge and stop tailpiece with Grover 18:1 Rotomatic tuners for smooth tuning and stability.
