This is a simply wonderful guitar sounding and feeling like a Hauser I but with new vitality. Gerhard Oldiges has had extensive access to fine examples of 1930's & 1940's Hauser I guitars on which this is very closely copied. The sound is very authentic Hauser with body frequency between F and F#, like many originals. The bass is deep, magical and the treble sweet and singing - remarkable for such a new guitar. The balance is also very good with plenty of power and volume. If you want a Hauser guitar without paying a fortune, faithful to the sound, feel and appearance you will struggle to find better than these handsome Gerhard Oldiges guitars.

"I would love to go through the process of buying a good guitar from Miles at KGCL because he really knows his stuff. But actually, I make them and so enjoy seeing my guitars amongst such a very fine selection of extremely good instruments. I feel very honoured that they are presented at Kent Guitar Classics."
