Dr. Hengstermann

Hello, I’m Martin Hengstermann — PhD mechanical engineer, guitar maker, and the inventor of this new generation of electric guitars from Kahla, Germany.
What started as an experimental idea turned into a mission: making the seemingly impossible possible — a lightweight, great-sounding guitar made of concrete and carbon.

By my side is my wife Wiebke, who brings our vision to life. She creates our promotional videos, takes care of our online presence, and is often the first person our customers talk to.

Together, we are bringing these extraordinary instruments into the world — engineered with precision, handcrafted, and driven by true passion.

Philosophy

• Innovation: Concrete and carbon open up entirely new sonic possibilities that once seemed unimaginable.

• Craftsmanship: Every guitar is hand-cast, meticulously inspected, and refined with exceptional attention to detail.

• Uniqueness: No two instruments are alike — each guitar is a distinctive work of art.

• Passion: Engineering expertise meets musical devotion to create instruments that inspire and move.
