Haar Traditional S Gloss Vintage White #1
Product information "Haar Traditional S Gloss Vintage White #1"
Classic nitro finish without relic marks or paint wear but with the natural ageing charm of a vintage nitro‑lacquered instrument, such as a slightly thinned, wafer‑thin lacquer layer that may occasionally show the tiniest hairline cracks as can occur with nitro lacquers. The exceptional resonant properties of the body wood are not inhibited here.

Haar Guitars is a Dutch guitar maker founded in 1987 by Erik van de Haar.
Since then they have focused on building high‑quality vintage‑style guitars in the vein of the Stratocaster and Telecaster. The instruments are handcrafted with great care from premium materials.
Alongside authentic relic finishes, all Haar guitars feature top‑class pickups, such as the popular and frequently praised Kloppmann Pick Ups. Here you get a genuine custom feel away from the big brands — and often for a smaller budget.
Olli took a closer look at some models for our YouTube channel and put them up against comparable Fender models.
