Whether you're a shredder or a tenor, the backbeat of a band or the leader of a symphony, we make the tools that make your instrument perform on a higher level. While our family has been in the business of making strings since the 17th century, we've expanded into every form of music—from woodwinds to percussion, orchestral to all fretted instruments. So you can keep pushing music–and your instrument–into exciting, unexpected, and extraordinary places.
