Discussing the importance of ASIA at a recent symposium.

Many people know Guitarmaker Magazine, the Journal of ASIA. But ASIA—the Association of Stringed Instrument Artisans—is more than a magazine. We host a biennial symposium, help builders market their instruments, and help luthiers, players, and collectors to learn more about stringed instruments.

We hope you enjoy the latest news presented below.

“ASIA is an organization where you not only grow your skills, but grow your extended family. I have met so many wonderful, knowledgeable people through this organization.” ~Michael Dickinson, Martin Guitar
