NAGEL Guitars - Präzision und Liebe zum Detail

Craftmanship becomes sound

My instruments are made entirely by hand using craftsmanship and know-how without the use of CNC machines.
I use carefully selected components and materials out of conviction.

These are processed with precision and great attention to detail. This results in high-quality instruments “handmade in Germany”.

You can feel it, you can hear it.

Natural Line

Only natural products are used for the finish

NAGEL - handmade pickups

Who picks up the sound?

In my basses I use handmade pickups from my own production..

These individually emphasize the basic tonal character of each instrument, which is determined by the choice of wood.

We also offer our pickups for sale separately.

New – The Classic DragonHEAD

The bass that goes deep

There are several features that make this bass something special.
Firstly, the hand-carved dragon head, and secondly the three single coils, which can be switched in two combinations.
The HEAD stringing is for all those who only play four-string basses and want to do without the G-string in order to be able to go deeper with the B-string.

More information about the Dragonhead can be found here.

… in Lower Saxony / Steinhude by the sea

At ROCK-HUS – the somewhat different music store at 31515 Steinhude, Am Anger 2 (Germany).
At Holger Gamradt-Dählmann, you will not only find instruments and accessories, but also many useful items related to music. You can basically walk into the store as you are and walk out dressed from head to toe… including a NAGEL bass… or a guitar… and then you can go straight on stage.
