Hanika 52AF Classical Guitar

Hanika 52AF Classical Guitar - (Options: 50mm nut width and curved fingerboard)

"Beautiful!" Chris Lambert 2011

From Hanika's "Recital Class", the 52AF has a spruce soundboard and deep-flamed golden-brown maple back and sides. It has become one of our best selling guitars, particularly popular for players with an eclectic repertoire as it suits a jazz style as much as it does a classical one.

"...the guitar is beautiful. Lovely action...other band members remarked on the depth and clarity of the AF 52" , Richard Zahler, 10/6/2009

American cedar neck with ebony reinforcement. Ebony fingerboard. Ebony head veneer. Finished with high-gloss lacquer but with a tone-enhancing satin finish on the soundboard. High quality Rubner tuners.

"I am absolutely delighted with the guitar [Hanika 52AF] and look forward to doing business with you again in the future. Thanks again" Wayne Chappell, September 2008.

Rosewood rosette, ebony head veneer and a 20th fret.

Most people who buy this guitar have it built with some customisation - typically a narrower or a curved fingerboard, short scale or an AER pickup/preamp.

We think we are now the UK's largest classical guitar shop with more models and more brands - meaning more choice - than any other in the country.

As well as this unbeatable range of classical models, we also have a very large range of electro/cutaway nylon string, flamenco, and steel string acoustic guitars including an unmatched selection of Maccaferri / Django style jazz guitars.

Please phone before visiting - you will get uninterrupted time in our (admittedly small) studio to try out as many guitars as you like and you will be certain that we have the guitars you want to try in stock.
