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.
This is a cutaway classical guitar developed from Hanika’s 56 Model for easy fingering and improved playability in high ranges. The Florentine cutaway makes playing in the high ranges comfortable. The rib height has been slightly reduced. Back and ribs made from high-quality light Palo Escrito rosewood (Mexico) and a soundboard made from high-quality spruce wood. The combination of Palo Escrito, a particularly light and expressive tonewood, and cedar wood means that this model delivers good attack and a full sound. This model is visually attractive with its back and ribs in a high-gloss finish and silk-matt varnished cedar soundboard.
The beautifully structured tonewood paired with the curved bridge made from east Indian rosewood and the rosewood-maple-rosewood head plate constitute visual highlights on this guitar. Made from very high-quality solid tonewoods, this guitar comes with a flat soundboard and asymmetrical fivefold fan bracing. The gold-coloured bushed ‘Rubner R2E’ tuning machines with engraved edging, the cedro neck laminated throughout with the best hardwood, the high-quality ebony fretboard and the rosewood-maple-rosewood head plate are representative of the CutProPF’s high quality. The guitar’s body comes in a high-gloss finish achieved with a UV-curing acrylic varnish, the soundboard is matt finished with closed pores. Comes with a Hanika Gig-bag.
