Wolf Hoffmann (born December 10, 1959 in Mainz, West Germany) is a German guitarist, primarily known as guitarist in the German heavy metal band Accept since 1976. In 1997, he released the album ''Classical'' with rock versions of classical pieces. He contributed to Skid Row vocalist Sebastian Bach's solo album ''Bring 'Em Bach Alive!'' and to a 2000 Japanese tribute to Randy Rhoads album called ''Randy Rhoads Tribute'' with Sebastian Bach on "I Don't Know" and with Joe Lynn Turner on "Diary of a Madman". Hoffmann also contributed to ''Peace Breaker'' by Skew Siskin. He has loved photography as a hobby early on, and eventually made it his second career. He took the cover photo for ''Objection Overruled''. During Accept's hiatus from 1997, Hoffmann has worked as a professional photographer (website listed below). He is currently based in Nashville, TN, but also maintains a residence in Berlin, Germany. Wolf Hoffmann is married to Gaby Hoffmann (née Hauke), who used to be Accept's manager. Gaby Hauke contributed to Accept's songwriting under the pseudonym Deaffy. Accept reformed with Hoffmann on board in 2009. Their comeback album, ''Blood of the Nations'', was released August 20, 2010 to overwhelmingly positive reviews. A follow-up album, ''Stalingrad'', surfaced two years later, which also was highly praised.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=166048 )〕 On November 27th, during an Accept show in London, Wolf revealed in an interview with Blackdiamond that he was working on a new solo album, which will probably be another in the Neo-Classical Metal style, as his previous ''Classical'' Album was. He also stated that this album will probably be ready to be released in 2015 but did not mention a certain time. ==Instruments== During the National Association of Music Merchants 2013 show, Wolf has unveiled a new signature guitar which was manufactured by Framus.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://metalshockfinland.com/tag/wolf-hoffmann-s-signature-guitar/ )〕 This guitar is manufactured in two styles, a guitar in white called Flying Fortress and the other one is in chrome and has been made to resemble a WWII bomber which is called Flying Fortress. Wolf told Metal Shock Finland's chief editor, Mohsen Fayyazi: In addition, Hoffman was a heavy user of Gibson Flying V's and Fender Stratocasters during Accept's prime in the 1980s, guitars that he still uses periodically today. Hoffman has also played guitars by various other companies such as Jackson guitars, most notably a custom Jackson King V, a guitar he still uses presently. He has also periodically played Fernandes guitars. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wolf Hoffmann」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
