Beginning in 1974, Hermann Hauser III and his father built guitars independently in the same workshop. The secret of the sound of a Hauser guitar is to be found not only in technical processing. For his work, Hermann Hauser III received the highest awards from professional organizations and the highest acknowledgment of the international guitar community. In order to build guitars at a level of highest perfection, he counts on: sure instinct, especially for the guitarist´s way of playing, a feeling for forms, to give musical aesthetics to the instruments, handcraft talent, to correctly process the living resource wood, musicality, to recognize the sonority of the instruments, and above all love for the profession.

Manufacturing a guitar takes Hermann Hauser III between 150 and 240 hours of work. A maximum of 17 guitars per year can be output from the Reisbach workshop. The waiting period for a new instrument is about five years. Because involving plenty of time is the only way for an artistic guitar to arise, just like Andres Segovia wrote into the Hauser family guest book: “A friend for the rest of your life”.
