Kirk Sand Guitars have long been reputed as great American-made acoustic-electric guitars. That tradition continues with every new Sand Guitar™ we build, just like Kirk did.

Our guiding spirit is a man who innovated great advancements in acoustic electric guitar design and who, for over forty years and almost 800 guitars, was loved by the many guitarists and fans who came into contact with him. Kirk Sand was a great guitar builder and a true pioneer in the world of lutherie. He built guitars for great guitarists including Lenny Breau, Chet Atkins, Richie Sambora, Jerry Reed, Tommy Emmanuel,  Kevin Eubanks, Richard Smith. And he also built guitars for every day players and collectors who value high-quality, beautiful instruments that create beautiful music.

Kirk Sand nylon string acoustic electric guitars are known to be some of the finest in the world in terms of craftsmanship, tone and playability and Kirk's spirit lives on in the sound and soul of every custom-built Kirk Sand Guitar we make. It's a guitar-making tradition that we're honored to continue right here in the USA for future generations of musicians who demand only the finest guitars.
