What opinion do music professionals have about luthier’s workshop Hrus?
Professor Zdenek Dvorak
„I was able to try out instruments from luthier’s workshop Hrus both on the platform and in the recording studio and I can say that Richard Hrus currently belongs to the top of the Czech and worldwide guitar makers. His instruments are distinctive by their colourful soulfulness, as it is used to be by a sensitive man.
But what is very important, luthier’s maker Richard Hrus is perceptive to the needs of common guitar players.“
