Expo, Korg UK is introducing the Walden Guitars range. Formed in 1996, Walden is the result of a collaboration between CFox Guitars luthiers Charles Fox and Jonathan Lee, and the manufacturing giant KHS, whose brands include Mapex and Jupiter. Walden does not outsource its
manufacturing as the guitars are made in their own factory. This factory is the only one in Asia with a certified 100 per cent Pure Chain-of-Custody and Walden is also a member of The Forest Trust (TFT) , committed to developing legal sourcing for all materials. Rob Castle, MD of Korg UK commented: “We felt that MIRC is an ideal way of introducing our new line of Walden guitars to the industry, as well as showing some of our other products from Korg and Vox.” Walden has been very successful in
other European markets and is well regarded by those who know of it here in the UK. We are excited to add it to our product range.”
The line up includes steel string, and classical acoustic/electro acoustic guitars.
