Carl Hermann Schäfer (Nicolaus Wollf) 2001 – fine handmade classical guitar with powerful and sweet sound.
For years, Carl Hermann Schäfer built guitars under the pseudonym Nicolaus Wollf. Now he uses his real name again. He is one of the outstanding guitar builders in Germany. He began building guitars in 1966 and completed his apprenticeship with master guitar builder Ernest Köröskeny and then with master guitar builder Dieter Hopf, in whose workshop he also worked at the beginning.
Nicolaus Wollf is known in an astonishing number of fields of guitar making. He has great experience in the restoration of historical guitars and restored an Antonio de Torres, of which many articles can be found on the internet. He also rebuilt this Torres masterfully and caused great enthusiasm in the guitar world with this reproduction. Other copies of great masters such as Santos Hernandez or Hermann Hauser also belong to his speciality.
In modern guitar building his knowledge is highly appreciated and customers from all over the world commissioned him with the most different guitar models (Double Top, Lattice, traditional Spanish … and much more).
This guitar from the year 2001 is a fantastic masterpiece by Nicolaus Wollf. It has a fine spruce top and back and sides of magnificent maple. The scale length is 654 mm and the nut width 52 mm.
This guitar is very light in weight and sounds and plays a bit like a Hauser II. It has a very charming woody, old-world sound, and would make an excellent recording instrument.
It is lightly braced with Torres style fan braces, which gives this guitar a loose, warm and very open sound, while maintaing excellent clarity at the same time. It also has plenty of power and is a great concert level guitar.
It is in great condition with just some amount of wear from play and use. The guitar plays nicely with a straight neck and a low action.
It comes with a nice hard case.
