Bridge Musical Instruments have been designing and manufacturing high quality electric and acoustic string instruments for 11 years. Taking pride in their work, a select group of master luthiers produce a range of beautiful, brilliant sounding instruments for many internationally renowned artists, as well as semi-professionals and beginners.
The electric instruments are made from hard-wearing kevlar and carbon fibre composites, that will survive any long tour, or lively gig.

Full Services are available on each of our instruments and can be set up to your own specification.
