The Classical Guitar after Hermann Hauser Sr. 1937, Ex. Segovia


This classic is my best attempt to reproduce the 1937 Ex-Segovia guitar by Hermann Hauser Sr.

It's a wonderful guitar that shows its lineage straight back to Torres.
The sound is full, even, loud, and very "classic".  This is my favorite classical.


   

 

           

 

 

 

I can also make these with a cutaway (the body will be approximately 1/8-inh deeper front to back.

This one also has an under-saddle pickup.
