Angel Romero - 1958 Hermann Hauser II

Here’s the great Angel Romero introducing us to this amazing 1958 Hermann Hauser II guitar – one almost identical to the one his father had given him, and which he played in concerts for many years. In the first video he gives us the history of the guitar, and of the other 1958 Hauser that had belonged to his father, Celedonio Romero. And in the second video he shows us specifically what makes this a great concert guitar – from the even balance of the voices to the sustain and the quick responsiveness of the strings to the right hand. It’s a great lesson in what qualities to look for in a guitar.
