Description
At HANIKA craftsmanship is understood as custom work and sound as art. A guitar from the famous Baiersdorf manufacture is a symbol of quality and craftsmanship tradition. Since 1953 it has been the basis for the success story of the company, combined with trend-setting innovations. Master plucked instrument maker Armin Hanika took over the company from his father in 1993 and has been building classical guitars of outstanding quality ever since.
Back and sides of this guitar are made of high quality maple wood and the top is made of excellent spruce. The 50 AF model has a very soft sound and is perfect for chamber music. Response and sustain in of this guitar are perfectly balanced, which makes it the perfect instrument for many different type of players.
The guitar has a PUR finish. This very thin varnish/ wax sealing makes the surface more resistant to typical playing loads and yet the thin sealing creates a particularly open and transparent sound. The golden mechanics with ebony knobs, the hardwood reinforced Cedro-neck and the fretboard made of African blackwood underline the high quality of the 50 AF.
