Sonically the Orca ’59 convinces with the Nik Huber-typical combination of warmth, dynamics and clarity.

About Nik Huber

Nik Huber stands for high-quality, refined guitars "made in Germany". In his workshop in Rodgau, Hesse, electric guitars are created that look as great as they sound. It's no coincidence that artists such as Peter Baumann (Beatsteaks), Christian Neander (Selig), David Sullivan (Red Fang) and Vidar Landa (Kvelertak) have their guitars built by Nik Huber. The model range is classically inspired but has developed its own character in models like Dolphin, Orca, Krautster, Twangmeister and Rietbergen. The choice of woods, especially the beautiful maple tops, shows that the Huber family can look back on a more than 100-year tradition of woodworking.

Due to the close proximity to our Frankfurt branch, our relationship with Nik Huber is traditionally very close, so we're happy to advise you on individual questions and requests. In addition to the electric guitars that we always have on display, custom customer orders in the stores or via the webshop are also no problem.
