Tiger Myrtle & the Hauser Model – A Unique Voice in the Australian Landscape Series
One of the most fascinating combinations in the Australian Landscape Series is the pairing of Tiger Myrtle with the beautifully crafted Hauser model, built by Chris Wynne Guitars for the series.
Tiger Myrtle is often chosen for its stunning visual appearance, but its tonal qualities are equally impressive. Many players describe it as offering a clear, balanced voice with excellent note separation and articulation. The bass response is focused and controlled, while the mids remain rich and expressive. The trebles have a sweet clarity that allows individual notes to stand out without becoming harsh.
In the Hauser model, these characteristics come together exceptionally well. Inspired by the traditional Hauser-style classical guitar, the design emphasizes balance, responsiveness, and musicality. The result is an instrument that rewards both delicate fingerstyle playing and more dynamic passages with remarkable clarity and projection.
Players often note that Tiger Myrtle sits tonally between maple and rosewood:
More warmth and complexity than maple.
More focus and definition than many rosewood guitars.
Excellent sustain and note separation.
A balanced response across all registers.
Combined with Chris's craftsmanship and the elegant Hauser design, the Tiger Myrtle Hauser model delivers a voice that is both refined and distinctive—equally suited for classical repertoire, contemporary fingerstyle, and expressive solo performance.
For many collectors and players within the Australian Landscape Series, this combination represents the perfect marriage of Australian tonewood beauty and traditional European guitar design.
