Since then they have built quality archtop and acoustic guitars for world-renowned top brands such as Gretsch of Fender®, Epiphone of Gibson, Alvarez of St.Louis Music and many others with our high standards of quality. In the early stage of business, there were times that our company produced almost 30,000 pieces of guitars per month. However, now we are focusing solely on quality and building only less than 1,000 guitars per month which is 1/25 in quantity. These changes have been done to build guitars only we can be proud of. As the result of the effort, now we are presenting series of guitars with our own brand name, PEERLESS.
