Hermann Hauser ® I Terz - 1909
Overview
Overview
Hermann Hauser ® I as a German luthier, holds a leading position among luthiers worldwide. He took over the instrument workshop of his father while Josef Hauser ® was still managing the music publishing house. Hermann Hauser ® I specialised in making lutes and guitars but also remained true to the construction of zithers. In the context of the Guitaristic Movement in Bavaria, Hermann Hauser ® I built a large number of different guitars; in particular the Vienna models and the Munich models in all kinds of forms, but all in absolute perfection. The Terz, Prim and the very rare Quintbass guitars of Hermann Hauser ® I are of highest quality. Even today, the sound of those instruments is still unsurpassed. Based on his special virtuosity, Hermann Hauser ® I developed technical, patented innovations in the area of construction of the guitar’s tops and body-neck connections. The Spanish virtuosi Miguel Llobet and Andres Segovia became attentive to Hermann Hauser ® I’s art of making guitars at the beginning of the 20th century.
This is the oldest known Hermann Hauser ® I terz-guitar. The Viennese guitars by Hermann Hauser ® I are known to be instruments that are easy to play. They have a powerful sound and a long lasting resonance. Due to its manifoldness, this instrument can be used as a solo instrument or in chamber music. The two-piece top is made of spruce wood and is framed by dark and light purflings, just like the sound hole as well. The two-piece back as well as the two-piece ribs are made of flamed maple. The head is connected with the neck by a German neck spine. The neck is screwed to the body and can be adjusted individually. The fingerboard has a zero fret and protrudes the sound hole.

Classical Guitars
The classical guitar, with its soft nylon strings and characteristic timbre, has become a symbol of chamber music, Spanish tradition, and concert repertoire. Its modern form was shaped by Antonio de Torres in the 19th century, setting the standard for the body, fan bracing, and the 65-centimeter scale length that are still used today. Instruments in this category open up a rich palette from the refined Romantic miniatures of Tárrega to the majestic concertos of Rodrigo. Here you will find guitars that preserve historical continuity and at the same time inspire new interpretations.Look all products of the collection -
