From the seller

Braun & Hauser 1905 Classical Guitar – A Rare Masterpiece from the Early Years of the Legendary Hermann Hauser The Braun & Hauser 1905 Classical Guitar is far more than just a historical instrument. It originates from an exceptional period in German guitar-making history and leads directly to a name that is still considered one of the most important guitar makers of all time today: Hermann Hauser I. Anyone interested in high-quality classical guitars can hardly get around Hermann Hauser. His instruments influenced generations of guitar makers and were played by some of the greatest virtuosos of the 20th century. However, long before the famous Hauser guitars achieved worldwide fame, instruments like this Braun & Hauser 1905 Classical Guitar were created – built during that exciting transitional period when the young Hermann Hauser had already fully developed his extraordinary skills. The story behind the name Braun & Hauser is as fascinating as it is rare. After Josef Hauser, Hermann Hauser I's father, was forced to sell his workshop due to a severe accident, Hermann became part of the newly formed company, Braun & Hauser. He quickly became the dominant figure in the workshop there and laid the foundation for his later legendary reputation. It is precisely this historical connection that makes the Braun & Hauser 1905 Classical Guitar an exceptional collector's item.

Whether it's romantic literature, classical works, or delicate fingerstyle playing – the Braun & Hauser 1905 Classical Guitar captivates with its expressiveness and remarkable tonal diversity.
