Hermann Hauser ® I - 1913 ex Miguel Llobet

Hermann Hauser ® I - 1913 ex Miguel Llobet

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 instrument by Hermann Hauser ® I is one of two worldwide existing guitar models that were built and played by Miguel Llobet after Miguel Llobet visited Hermann Hauser ® I in 1913. Miguel Llobet is one of the most important representatives of Tarrega’s school.
The top is constructed in two pieces and framed by a dark wooden purfling. The soundhole decoration consists of a bold and dark edging which is surrounded by light and dark chippings. The innermost part of the decoration around the soundhole is a dark wooden purfling. The back is made of one piece and is made like the sides of flamed maple. A German neck spine connects the head with the neck and a coating of clear varnish accentuates the grain of the neck’s maple wood.

While this guitar is sold, these are ready for you

  • 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.
