Testimonials

"I am very impressed with Guo guitars.  They exemplify the highest level of craftsmanship from an experienced master luthier.  I am particularly impressed with the full, warm tone and outstanding projection of Guo guitars.  I believe they represent one of the best values currently available on the concert guitar market.  Anyone seeking a high quality concert instrument would do well to consider a Guo."

"Recently, I was given the pleasure to try out a guitar "made in China" by Mr. Yulong Guo. The guitar was a total surprise. No mass production, no imitation of anything but a very original instrument build in the new 21st century tradition of "double top" guitar building. My compliments to Mr. Guo. May he have a long and prosperous future in guitar building."

"The guitars of Yulong Guo compare favorably to guitars that are more than twice the price.  They are made with the utmost attention to craftsmanship, consistency of sound, and projection for the serious student or professional.  The sound port provides a realistic sense of the sound to the player, while not so large as to provide a false sense of projection.  These guitars produce a warm sound with quick response and comfort to the player right out of the box, with almost no time needed to adjust. These guitars provide an exceptional quality at an exceptional price point; what's not to love?"

"The Yulong Guo Chamber Concert is a beautiful guitar accompanied with a beautiful warm sound. Well worth every penny."

"Yulong Guo’s guitars are incredible instruments at an incredible price. They have a genuine power, yet still retain a beautiful and intimate sound. They are easy and comfortable to play. The trebles and basses are well balanced and suit all styles of classical guitar. I am certain that these instruments will rise in popularity and value over the next few years."

"I recently purchased a Yulong Guo Chamber Concert classical guitar from Thomas Coffey. I was not in the market for a new guitar but when I heard and played this guitar, I was hooked. The craftsmanship of the guitar is exquisite and it has unique features such as double top construction, a sound port and an armrest. The playability is fantastic and if necessary, a lower saddle is included. But most important is the sound! With its double top, the guitar is loud and well balanced. It sounds better than many guitars costing twice as much. The bass is deep and rich and I especially like the clear treble. This guitar is a joy to play and I can't wait to hear it get even better over time."
