Hannabach Guitar Strings

The Hannabach Family Tradition: Experience in String Making

In 1869 Anton Hannabach founded a musical instrument string making company in Bohemia. After the Second World War, their factory was moved to the German province of Bavaria.

The tradition of string making has been passed down through the Hannabach family through the generations. Today, Werner Hannabach is active in the company on a daily basis and assists with product training, repairs, and custom-made strings. He has also been active in an advisory capacity on the development of new product lines and in the optimization of production processes.

And so, the Hannabach family continues the legacy in fulfilling its quest: “Sound comes first!”
