From our Grand Concert model range comes this beautiful guitar, luthier built from highest grade solid woods. The top is Canadian cedar and the 7 strut fan bracing is copied from the original design of Herman Hauser's legendary 1937 model which was described by Andres Segovia as 'quite possibly the best guitar he had ever played'.
The back and sides are built from East Indian rosewood bound with rosewood bindings highlighted with maple purfling. The neck is Honduran mahogany with ebony fingerboard and neck reinforcement. The tuning machines are by Der Jung.
Neither the photos in the image gallery, or the video below, can fully do justice to this fabulous instrument. Until it is viewed in person, held and played, only then can it be appreciated for its incredible level of craftsmanship and performance. Which is why the 'collection in person' buying option is actively encouraged so that buyers can closely inspect and trial instruments before fully commiting to purchase. If any instrument doesn't fully meet expectations then an instant refund will be given.
