Donner Debuts the HUSH™ C: The Next Evolution in Nylon-String Acoustic-Electric Guitars

News

Donner Music proudly announces the global debut of the HUSH™ C, the newest addition to its award-winning HUSH™ series. Designed for the modern musician, this nylon-string acoustic-electric guitar merges classical warmth with cutting-edge portability, making it perfect for silent practice, live performance, and travel.

Classical Warmth Meets Modern Technology

The HUSH™ C delivers the rich, nuanced sound of a classical guitar while integrating advanced electronics for amplified performance. Equipped with Donner’s HUSH Custom Piezo pickup and HPS-II preamp system, it faithfully reproduces the delicate warmth and articulation of nylon strings—ideal for fingerstyle playing, dynamic strumming, and everything in between.

The HPS-II system includes:

  • Two-band EQ for precise tone shaping

  • Built-in tuner with a clear display

  • Low-battery indicator for uninterrupted play

  • Multiple connectivity options (headphone, AUX-in, and 1/4" amp output)

Lightweight Design, Full-Sized Playability

Weighing just 2.0 kg (about half the weight of a traditional classical guitar), the HUSH™ C is engineered for effortless portability. Its headless design and quick-release metal frame reduce bulk without compromising durability.

Despite its compact size, the guitar maintains a comfortable, full-scale feel with:

  • 46mm nut width for an authentic classical grip

  • C-shaped neck reinforced with dual carbon fiber rods for stability

  • 648mm (25.5") scale length for balanced string tension

  • 400mm radius HPL fingerboard for smooth playability

Smart Features for Effortless Performance

The HUSH™ C introduces several player-friendly upgrades, including:

  • Roller-style truss rod adjustment at the heel for quick setup

  • Magnetic hex wrench holder for easy maintenance access

  • Rounded stainless steel frets for enhanced comfort

Versatile Connectivity for Any Setting

Whether practicing silently or performing on stage, the HUSH™ C adapts seamlessly with:

  • Headphone output for quiet practice

  • AUX input for playing along with backing tracks

  • Standard 6.35mm (1/4") output for live amplification

A New Standard in Nylon-Electric Guitars

"The HUSH™ C stands out with its headless design, a first for the HUSH series," says Huang Bailin, Product Manager at Donner Guitar Department. "The streamlined hardware improves aesthetics and functionality, while the roller truss rod ensures easy adjustments—delivering an exceptional playing experience."

Crafted with an Okoume body and HPL fingerboard, the HUSH™ C balances tradition and innovation, making it an ideal choice for classical guitarists, fingerstyle players, and traveling musicians.
