Description
In 2004, Roger Schmidt came across Furch Guitars while attending a music trade show in Germany. He was immediately impressed with their instruments and knew that they truly stood out from the crowd.
The following year, Roger started his own guitar distribution business and returned to the same trade show, where he had the opportunity to play and evaluate the instruments a second time and confirm his original impressions. After some positive and fruitful discussion with the Furch Sales team, they were delighted by his proposal to introduce their guitars to Canada and the United States.
Roger then began his new role as the official distributor and brand strategist of Furch guitars for North America. He decided to name them Stonebridge Guitars, which paid homage to the historical Charles Bridge in Prague, and also felt like the perfect name and brand for the North American market.
