Check out the flamed maple top, headstock veneer, and back of the neck! Stunning and even. It's what dreams are made of! It's harder and harder these days to come across flamed maple tops that have even grain on both sides. And how about that finish? You don't see this hue of shimmery grey on your average guitar! This is a one-of-a-kind, custom spec Orca, from one of the best in the business.

fast fretboard, plenty of tonal option, and available at a price so far from it's new counterpart, you'd think there's a problem! There isn't. We just have a consignment customer who's looking to change things up in his collection.

Manufacturer's Description from Nik Huber

A legend in and of itself, the Nik Huber

Orca looks familiar to guitar players

around the world by virtue of its shape.

Paying tribute to the first solidbody of

this kind, the Nik Huber Orca brings a new

twist to the traditional form with a slightly

thinner body and a longer scale.

The classic combination of tonewoods

and traditional method of construction

make this guitar spring to life out of the

fascinating merger between vintage

values and modern-day quality.

Nik Huber Guitars Krautster - NAMM 2010

Nik Huber releases his latest sensation, the Krautster, at NAMM 2010. A sensation instrument that is stripped down to its most pure elements produces all of the feel and tonal qualities you would expect from a Nik Huber instrument without the ornate features known to some of his other masterpieces. The instrument is true a rock and roll tool designed to be a workhorse for the touring, studio, or gigging musician, or any musician or home-studio enthusiast that wants the legendary Nik Huber feel, build-quality, and tone, at a nicely reduced price. As are all of the Nik Huber Instruments, the Krautster is hand-crafted in Germany by Nik, and available for purchase or special order with Sound Pure that can be reached toll free at 888-528-9703.
