OEM Guitars - history

OEM Guitars is part of IBC Trading Ltd, headed by Iain Wilson. We offer a full range of design, manufacturing and sourcing services for musical instruments.

Our speciality is guitars. While many guitar factories have grown out of making toys (particularly in China) and sought to improve quality, IBCT is made up of a team of manufacturing and marketing experts.

Our skills come from over 18 years of production and sales for Lowden Guitars, Breedlove Guitars, Flaxwood and many more.. We also have a skilled team of Irish luthiers who have worked at the premier Irish guitar factories. So while other factories work from the bottom up and strive to get better, we start at the top, with a firm understanding of guitars, sound, design and quality.

With years of manufacturing and marketing experience for guitars retailing from $2000 - $25,000, IBCT's team has strived to bring a number of the key elements from these hand crafted guitars, to affordable levels in skilled Chinese production.

So we partner and train factories in Asia, where we know they can achieve our high quality standards. This is backed by our skilled luthier team Irish team, who are managed by Dave Ingham, the ex production manager at Lowden Guitars. In addition, we draw on a team of designers, luthiers and engineers from the UK, Europe and USA.

Iain Wilson has over 18 years experience in selling high-end guitars worldwide. He understands the requirements of manufacturers, distributors and retailers looking to set themselves apart by offering guitars with great designs, quality and keen prices.

The result at IBCT is a range of acoustic and classical guitars that offer excellent quality, select materials and a superior sound. We can offer you our designs, packaged with your logo and headstock. Alternatively, we can produce OEM products to your exacting designs. In addition, our team can design new body shapes, logos, headstocks and bridges that meet your requirements.

With a deep understanding of wood, our team carefully selects bracing material, tops, backs and sides and neck material.

The all solid models including a variety of regular woods such as Mahogany and Rosewood, as well as a range of exotic woods such as Akoume, Bubinga, Amazaque, Tasmanian Blackwood.
