2019 Darren Hippner - Santos Hernandez Model - Rosewood Classical Guitar

Description

Here is an excellent condition, 2019 Darren Hippner -
Santos Hernandez Tribute
Classical Guitar.
This is a fine classical guitar. It was hand-built by Darren Hippner in his Point Roberts, Washington workshop.
This hand-crafted guitar was made using solid Indian Rosewood for the back and sides, a Cedar neck and a Spruce top. The head stock plates are Brazilian rosewood.
This guitar has been refurbished using nitrocellulose lacquer, as it was finished originally. There were no cracks in the top, sides or back of this guitar.
Scale length on this guitar is 650 millimeters. Nut width is 52 millimeters. The ebony fretboard is in excellent condition and the guitar has just been refretted. The fret ends have been well polished for smooth playing. Action on the 12th fret low E string is 3.6 millimeters and the 12th fret high E string measures 3.5 millimeters with room left at the saddle to lower it a bit.
The guitar is equipped with Rubner high ratio tuning keys that are smooth and hold tune well. The label is in excellent condition.
The combination of Indian Rosewood and a Spruce top give this guitar sparkling trebles, while maintaining balanced bass. The 7 fan braces create a very traditional classical sound, full of nuance, instead of the more boomy neutral tones of some large body long scale guitars.
The guitar will be carefully packed and shipped in a good condition lightweight travel case.
