The 2009 Hopkins Tessa Nova is a handcrafted archtop electric guitar by Canadian luthier Peter Hopkins. It features a hand-carved Sitka spruce top and highly figured big leaf maple back and sides, paired with a one-piece flamed maple neck. The guitar includes a custom Kent Armstrong floating pickup, Gotoh 510 tuners, and a neo-classical fingerboard. Its design showcases open “scimitar” soundholes, a large flared “Nova” headstock, and matching carved components like the tailpiece and pickguard. Known for its clean, open, and percussive voice, the Tessa Nova is ideal for chord melody and solo playing. Includes an Ameritage hardshell case.
*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
