Haar guitars Trad S #42275 - aged olympic white

Dutch luthier Erik van de Haar has been building guitars since 1987. By dint of questioning and exacting standards, he has succeeded in establishing the Haar brand, whose reputation for excellence now extends far beyond the borders of his native country. Erik van de Haar and his team produce vintage-style Custom Shop grade instruments that have nothing to envy of American production.
Haar guitars are handcrafted from carefully selected woods and components (bodies and necks are home-made, not Warmoth or Allparts parts, pickups are Kloppmann, Lindy Fralin, Bare Knuckle and others). All instruments undergo Plek Machine procedures for outstanding intonation and playing comfort. 1950s-inspired models typically feature Ash bodies and all-Maple necks, while Sixties-inspired guitars have Alder bodies with Maple necks and Rosewood fretboards.

This HAAR GUITAR Trad S #42275 features an Alder body, Madagascar Rosewood fingerboard and a Lindy Fralin single-coil pickup / Amber '59 Crosspoint humbucking pickup configuration. Developed by Wolgang Damm (trained under Seth Lover and a long-time Gibson supplier), the Amber '59 Crosspoint pickup is considered by many specialists to be the ultimate replica of the original Gibson PAF.
