[Luthier]
Born in Queensland (Australia) in 1981.Sean started to learn how to make guitars while working with his father Kim in the family workshop. During his early years he fitted guitar work around his education and eventually gained bachelors degrees in product design and business. He won the Nescafe Big Break in 1997 for guitar making which included prize money of $20,000 which was used towards advancing the guitar making craft.

In 2007 Sean travelled to Siguenza, Spain to attend the Romanillos Guitar Workshop. At the workshop he was taught the Spanish method of classical guitar making from two of the world’s greatest luthiers, Jose and Liam Romanillos. He has also travelled to the USA, UK and Japan to inspect the instruments of master luthiers.

[Instrument information]
It is a Hauser I model of Sean Hancock.
The whole is beautifully finished with extremely delicate shellac paint, and the slightly hard and moderately sticky sound is suitable for the Hauser model and is really comfortable. The neck is thinly processed with a C shape and is easy to grip, the string tension is moderate, the pronunciation response is perfect, and both hands have a feeling of being able to play without stress.
Resonance is set to F # ~ G.
