The manufacture in Baiersdorf traces its roots to Helmut Hanika, who founded the SOLI company in 1953 after learning violin making through the family workshop tradition of his grandfather, Anton Mayer. As demand changed, Helmut Hanika moved from folk guitar production toward high-quality classical guitars, establishing the name Hanika as a respected German reference for refined hand-built instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eSince 1993, the company has been led by Armin Hanika, the second generation of the family. Under his direction, HANIKA continues to combine experienced handcraft, carefully selected materials, and modern construction concepts across a wide range of classical guitars, from the Studio Line to the specially made instruments of the Professional Line.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the guitar\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe Hanika Natural Torres Cedar belongs to the Professional Line and brings the warmth of a cedar soundboard into a traditionally inspired concert guitar with a direct, natural character. Its asymmetrically weighted, domed cedar top gives the instrument a quick and flexible response, while the East Indian rosewood back and sides add depth, sustain, and a substance-rich tonal foundation. The result is a guitar with strong dynamics, crisp articulation, and a warm voice that remains clear and well defined.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eMusically, the Natural Torres Cedar speaks with immediacy and colour. The cedar top gives the first contact with the string a soft, responsive quality, allowing the tone to open easily under the hands, while the rosewood body supports harmonic richness and focus. This balance makes the model well suited to players who value warmth, lyrical phrasing, and clean separation in both melodic and contrapuntal writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe Natural finish gives the guitar an understated, tactile presence and keeps the focus on the selected woods and clean craftsmanship. A reinforced cedro neck, African blackwood fingerboard, pierced rosewood, maple, and Macassar head design, and Rubner Sonido E tuners complete the model with practical stability and refined detail. It comes with a black Hanika Hiscox case.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe photos of this guitar are general product images that may differ from the actual instrument.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Siccas Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54313342402893,"sku":"KS17950","price":3190.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/4011\/7325\/files\/Classical-guitar-Hanika-Natural-Torres-2020-22.jpg?v=1763029021","url":"https:\/\/www.siccasguitars.com\/products\/armin-hanika-natural-torres-cedar-option-640-51","provider":"Siccas Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
