China Is Now Mass Producing High-End Acoustic Guitars... And Martin and Taylor Are in BIG Trouble

Seven out of every ten guitars in the world are now made in China, and the same industry that ships cheap beginner guitars by the container is now building high-end acoustics. 🎸 We followed China's guitar towns and brands, from the guitar capital of Huiyang to a mountain county that rebuilt itself around guitar making, and looked at what their rise means for America's two acoustic giants. You will see how Chinese makers moved from cheap laminate guitars to solid woods and smart technology, why some of the strongest proof comes from American companies themselves, and where Martin and Taylor are most exposed. What you'll find inside: 🏭 The Chinese district that built one fifth of the world's guitars 🏔️ The mountain county that brought its guitar makers home 📱 The Chinese smart guitar brand that topped Amazon on Prime Day 🎻 The Beijing company born from violin making that competes on quality, not price 🇺🇸 How Martin and Taylor build their guitars, and why they are under pressure 🏆 Whether the name on the headstock is still worth the difference Which acoustic guitar do you own, and where was it made?
