Few classical guitar designs have shaped modern concert tone like the 1937 Hermann Hauser Sr. model famously championed by Andrés Segovia, and this Cordoba Master Series Hauser brings that historic voice into the hands of today’s players. Built by hand in the USA and based on detailed study of the original instrument, it pairs a solid Italian spruce top with Indian rosewood back and sides for exceptional balance and clarity. Traditional 1937 Hauser 7-fan bracing supports its focused, transparent response, while the comfortable neck and refined setup make nuanced control feel effortless. For serious classical guitarists, the Master Series Hauser classical guitar delivers the purity and dynamic sensitivity that made the original a benchmark of the concert stage.

Italian Spruce And Rosewood Create Pure Classical Voice

At the heart of the instrument is a solid Italian spruce top matched with Indian rosewood back and sides, a tonewood combination prized for its articulation and depth. The spruce provides quick attack and crystalline note definition, while the rosewood body reinforces the fundamental with warmth and sustain. The result is the hallmark Hauser character: bell-like trebles, supportive bass response and remarkable separation between voices that allows complex passages to remain clear and balanced.

1937 Hauser Bracing Supports Expressive Control

Faithful 1937 Hauser-style 7-fan bracing shapes the guitar’s responsive, highly controlled tonal envelope. This traditional architecture gives advanced players the ability to color phrases through right-hand position rather than relying on built-in coloration. Played over the soundhole, the tone becomes round and velvety; closer to the bridge, it reveals a brighter, more articulate edge. The design rewards refined technique with a level of dynamic control that defined the original instrument.

Master Series Pedigree Honors Legendary Luthiers

Cordoba’s Master Series celebrates four influential builders whose work helped define the modern nylon-string guitar, and the Hauser model represents one of the most important voices in that lineage. Developed in partnership with master luthier Kenny Hill, each detail was studied from the original guitar to capture its voicing, feel and structural nuances. Handmade in Cordoba’s California workshop using premium materials, the Master Series gives today’s performers access to historically informed designs without the rarity or cost of vintage originals.

Player-Focused Neck And Premium Components

A Spanish cedar neck and ebony fingerboard provide a smooth, confident playing surface with the familiar feel classical guitarists expect. The 650mm scale length and 52mm nut width support accurate left-hand articulation, while a carefully dialed-in setup offers easy playability without sacrificing clarity. Gold Gotoh tuners with an 18:1 ratio ensure precise tuning stability, and the bone nut and saddle help preserve the guitar’s focused, singing response.

A Faithful Tribute To A Concert Guitar Icon

From Segovia’s historic performances to its place among the most admired classical guitars ever built, the Hauser design remains a reference point for serious players. This Cordoba Master Series interpretation captures that legacy with impressive authenticity, combining traditional construction with modern reliability. For classical guitarists seeking a refined concert instrument with deep historical roots, the Master Series Hauser offers inspiring tone, comfortable playability and enduring musical authority.
