About Hozen Guitars
Hozen Guitars are voiced by Ho Zen Yong in Singapore and built by his small team in Guangzhou — a four-person collaborative shop turning out four or five instruments a month, all hand-voiced by Hozen himself. He trained directly under Ervin Somogyi, the modern dean of responsive acoustic voicing, and the Blue Label line carries that lineage forward in his own idiom: a signature lattice bracing pattern, rigid-rim construction, the Manzer wedge for tonal depth in a compact body, soundport, and beveled Laskin armrest. The output volume is unusual for a luthier-led shop — most peers at this level make twenty or thirty a year — which makes the Blue Labels meaningfully more findable than equivalent single-builder work, without the multi-year wait that typically gates Somogyi-school voicing.
About Munich Guitar Company
Munich Guitar Company has been on Franziskanerstraße in München's Haidhausen district since 1992, anchored by one of the largest master-luthier workshops in Europe. The shop pairs a retail floor of curated boutique inventory with the in-house Stevens Custom Shop, where master luthier Till Wollenweber and team have been building handmade guitars under the Stevens name since 1993. The boutique acoustic floor runs unusually deep on Atkin and Furch — including Atkin's aged-finish OM and LG series and Furch's Rainbow Custom Shop and Vintage Pure tiers — alongside Bourgeois, Boucher, Collings, Santa Cruz, and Huss & Dalton. Currency is EUR and they ship across Europe and beyond; for Continental boutique-acoustic shoppers, they're a primary destination.
