Hanika HE Torres Custom Classical Guitar — Ziricote / Shellac Top, All-Solid
This exclusive version of the Hanika HE Torres represents the pinnacle of German lutherie. Built according to the historical designs of Antonio de Torres, this instrument features solid Ziricote (Grade 1) back and sides, offering a deep, piano-like resonance and stunning visual aesthetics. The solid select cedar top is finished with a traditional Shellac (French Polish), hand-applied in ultra-thin layers to allow the soundboard to vibrate with unparalleled freedom and sensitivity.
For flawless tuning, the guitar is equipped with world-class Alessi Standard machines from Italy. The Cedro neck is reinforced with ebony for maximum stability, paired with a premium ebony fingerboard and bridge. The body features a high-gloss HE finish, accentuating the dramatic grain of the Ziricote. This masterpiece is protected by the industry-leading BAM Hightech case from France.
