We made so many new friends in 2014 through the Stonebridge/Furch Guitars Artist Collaboration Program. We recognize the importance of working with incredible artists to help spread the word about Stonebridge/Furch Guitars. Each one of these exceptional musicians uses a Stonebridge or Furch as their guitar of choice, and we are very thankful for all the support.

I would just like to say how awesome it is that this company gives shout outs and exposure to the musicians that play it’s instruments. Henry Nam for example has been a youtube friend of mine for a few years now and I love his work. We are both fingerstyle players and started playing Stonebridge guitars around the same time so of course we have had many emails back and forth nerding out over these guitars. Their aren’t many companies that are interested in having someone on their website that doesn’t have a contract with a major, but this company does. It shows a tremendous amount of heart, and support on their part. I’m so passionate about my guitars and this company because they are passionate about us. That’s rare and beautiful. Cheers.
