Also consider your local luthiers and other manufacturers, they’re often in dire need of support, yet get none because their guitars don’t have “Fender” or “Gibson” written on them.
I love this community because I’m learning a lot about where stuff is from. Case in point, I was going to suggest Ibanez and found out it’s Japanese lol
Well, at least it’s not from murica
I love my PJD custom shop Woodford Elite. They are a small UK based shop.

After all this years I have to find out that it actually is an intrument.
Lowden Guitars, high quality acoustics, made in Northern Ireland. https://lowdenguitars.com/
Taran makes some really amazing acoustics too.
This is exactly what we should do for now - post every single post both here on Lemmy and on Reddit and we should constantly remind people that they have to switch to Lemmy!
What is reddit?
The Reddit mods seems to not like Lemmy a lot: https://lemm.ee/post/57901024?scrollToComments=true
A bit pricy, bit there is Strandberg Guitars which AFAIK are made in Uppsala, Sweden.
Most of the current production is made in Indonesia, some special editions in Japan. Still, great guitars.
Ah, did not know this! Thanks. I tried to look through their website to find info on where the guitars are made nowadays but couldn’t really find anything.
Yes, it’s very difficult to find out where a guitar was manufactured. Often you have to go to a music store website and try to find a picture of the back of the headstock (or nub for Strandbergs). Most the time it’s written there.
