This magnificent concert guitar model from 1973, number 208. It is in good condition, but shows quite some traces from play and use.
The guitar is impeccably built. The construction is based on Torres with typical traditional German elements. It has the traditional Hannabach look. The scale length is 650 mm and the nut width is 52 mm. The top is made of fine spruce, the back and sides of maple. It comes with the original case.
Words are not enough to describe the rich and harmonious sound of this excellently built guitar. Be it the beauty of individual notes, melodic sequences or the blending of notes in counterpoint or chordal harmony – this fine guitar inspires in all aspects. In addition, there is the unique experience of feeling the resonance of the guitar on your own body while playing, which is possible due to the very light construction of the guitar.
This is one of the best Torres style guitars we had in our shop. We can recommend this guitar without reservation.
This Gerold Karl Hannabach 1973 is overall a very beautiful guitar that is part of the rich tradition of German guitar making.
