Hohner partnered with Mr. Hilario “Layo” Jimenez to bring to the market the H. Jimenez brand of bajo quintos and guitars.  Mr. Jimenez is known worldwide for his handcrafted bajos which he started making in 1975. The Hohner H. Jimenez instruments evolved from their collaboration, and they have design elements from Hilario Jimenez. The H. Jimenez Latin family of instruments includes a vihuela, a guitarron, 3 guitars and 8 bajo quintos.
