After playing classical guitar for 12 years, and deciding to pursue a doctorate degree, I felt it was time to purchase a true concert guitar. Upon arriving at the 12th Fret guitar store in Toronto, Canada, there was an overwhelming number of guitars to choose from, however, only one stood out. This guitar glowed and commanded to be played. I was at first taken aback by the sheer clarity of the guitar itself, the warm sound filling the room, the beautiful tone. It was certainly the strongest guitar I had ever played and I knew right away that this was the guitar for me.
Cervantes's master craftmenship can easily be heard as the guitar's sloped soundboard and combination of spruce and cocobolo rosewood provide maximum volume and projection. The Master M series is a true work of art.
If your a serious player you owe it to yourself to play a Cervantes guitar. If your local dealer doesn't carry Cervantes currently, I strongly urge you to requested that they do. You won't be disappointed, and neither will they.

I purchased my Cervantes Hauser Concert model at the Classical Guitar Store in Phil., Pa. First of all, you could not have picked a better location. The expertise and knowledge of your guitars was great.I told them I wanted a Hauser style guitar, and they should me your concert model. Needless to say, it was love at first site. I also have played a variety of fine instruments, but the sound that came from your guitar was special. I have owned the guitar since 2005, and it keeps getting better. The trebles sing and the bass is full and rich. The other thing is, that no matter what strings I use, it gives me the sound that I've always wanted.

If there is a way, this guitar will go to my grave with me.

Thank you for a wonderfull piece of art.

Dear Alejandro,

Thank you for building such a beautiful guitar. I continue to get comments like, “That is the best French polish job I have ever seen!” Or people will say, “What a beautiful piece of rosewood.” Even more important to me are the comments I get regarding the sound. While I knew it sounded rich, clear and resonant when I bought it, instructors at various workshops I have attended continually comment on these very assets. Once again, thanks for helping me to bring out the best in my guitar playing.

The first time I played my Cervantes Hauser Concert Model guitar, I thought, "This is what I've been hearing in my head every time I played, for the last forty years." It makes me sound llike Segovia. Small wonder: it's based on his guitar. The attention to detail can only be described as obsessive. Even the internal bracing is steam bent, rather than being saw kerfed. This is just a fabulous instrument, and I'm still crazy about it more than a year later. I was worried about taking it to a tropical climate, but Cervantes provided excellent online support, and I've had no problems from temperature or humidity.

The sound and playability of Cervantes guitars is simply unmatched by any
other classical guitar I've owned or played, and I have owned many including
a '43 Hauser by Fritz Mueller, a Gabriela by Vicente Carrillo and a new
Antonio Marin Montero. Alejandro recently completed a new Hauser Signature
classical for me in 640mm scale with a player-side soundport. The sound of
this guitar is exquisite and could best be described as multi-toned:
it is beguilingly warm and lyrical for the Spanish repertoire as well as
bright, clear and aristocratic for Scarlatti and Bach. The player-side
soundport is an added delight--it balances the sound to both ears while
enhancing all the best qualities of the instrument. I have never heard a
more beautiful guitar or played one that fit more perfectly in my hands.
This is my second Cervantes guitar, and I am be looking forward to
commissioning a third.
