2006 Hill 'Hauser '37' Model
Kenny Hill
"I have known Kenny Hill for a number of years, and so admire his work. I appreciate Kenny making this guitar under his personal supervision. One of the things Hill does best is absorb the influence of past masters of classical guitar making--Hauser, Fleta, Santos, Ramirez, and more--and reiterate that style with his own personal interpretation and flair. I admire that personally, because that is the same way I approach arranging! The latest edition in this Master Series of guitars is this Hauser style guitar.

The original guitar built for Andres Segovia by Hermann Hauser presently resides in New York's Metropolitan Museum. Kenny Hill decided to develop the Hauser '37 by closely following luthier Richard Brune's documented specifications both in materials and construction techniques.

Fully french polished, the sound that flows through lightly coated pores of the Engelmann Spruce soundboard is sophisticated and articultate with balanced noting. The standard scale length is employed here (650mm). The back and sides are Brazilian rosewood; the neck--Honduran mahogany. An ebony fretboard is capped with a 52mm nut. Well-respected Alessi tuners do their job well. A welcome modern addition to the design is a 2-way adjustable truss rod. If you are an accomplished player or a more casual appreciator of the classical guitar, you will likely find this instrument to be pleasantly unique. If you are a student, you owe yourself the experience of learning on a guitar of this level. In fact, any classical guitar that has been selected by Fine Guitar Consultants for these Guitar Lists will provide the pleasure to go along with the many hours you will spend in the learning process. No need to wait to reward yourself. Get the quality tools you need to do the job now. You'll be happy you made a good choice." --Richard
