Nik Huber Orca Semi Hollow Redwood

This special Nik Huber Orca was custom built in 2011. It sports an exceptional one-piece Redwood top done in Tiger Eye Burst, with Superhollow internal carve, Crown Ring Inlays in Sterling Silver and Snakewood, and Ebony Fingerboard. The Nik Huber Orca looks, plays, feels, and sounds like one of those legendary single cutaway instruments from the 50s. Unlike most of its predecessors, its magic and authenticity unfold from day one. Both body and soul have been revived by the experience and knowledge of Nik Huber's passionate craftsmen, who have raised the bar with respect to how a classic guitar should look and sound.
