First steps

Founded in the 1930s in Best, the Netherlands, by Uilke Egmond and his family, our company began by making stringed instruments such as mandolins, banjos and classical guitars. With the arrival of Rock & Roll and the rise of modern music, we decided to focus on the production of electric guitars, democratising access to music with affordable, quality instruments.

During the 1950s and 1960s, Egmond established itself as the largest guitar producer in Europe. Thousands of musicians began their careers with an Egmond in their hands, including legends such as Brian May, who had his first guitar with us before building the legendary "Red Special". Even John Lennon relied on an Egmond in his early days, making clear the impact of our brand on rock history.

Our History

Egmond is back. After decades of absence, the iconic dutch guitar brand returns with the same passion that made us a benchmark in music history. From humble beginnings to becoming the largest guitar manufacturer in Europe, Egmond has been the first step for countless musicians on their path to greatness.

The future of Egmond

Egmond is reborn with a clear mission: to offer high-quality guitars for musicians of all levels. We respect our legacy and project it into the future with new models that maintain the essence of our classic designs, but with the quality and versatility that current times demand.

We are proud to be back. Egmond is not just a guitar, it is the beginning of a musical journey. Are you ready to be part of this new era?
