What happens if my guitar is damaged during transit?

Products

Where are your guitars made?

Artist Guitars are designed in Australia and manufactured in China.

We work closely with our manufacturing partners to ensure high-quality standards, reliable performance, and excellent value for money. We have been working with guitar manufacturers for over 15 years to continually improve our instruments and accessories.

 


What brand are your guitars?

All of our guitars are sold under the Artist brand.

These instruments are designed specifically for us and sold directly to customers, helping us offer excellent quality at competitive prices.

 


Why can't I find Artist Guitars in retail stores?

Artist Guitars are sold directly to customers through our online store rather than through traditional retail outlets.

By selling direct, we reduce overhead costs and pass those savings on to our customers while maintaining high-quality standards across our range. This direct-to-customer model allows us to offer exceptional value without compromising on quality.
