Knobloch Strings:
“Located only a few kilometers from Barcelona, our headquarters is situated in an area known for its mountainous landscape, halfway between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean Sea. From this privileged position, we make Knobloch strings. We place special attention on our selection of materials, the manufacturing process and the final packaging to offer a high-quality product for professional guitarists.
Our strings are created by musicians for musicians. We strive for comfort, good intonation and versatility in making our products. We understand that the strings are tools that enhance the sound of the guitar, and as a tool, they must be adaptable to every instrument, every situation and every guitarist. It is for this that we offer an extensive range of strings, thinking specifically about the needs of professional guitarists.”
The origins of Knobloch Strings begin with Jiri Knobloch, guitarist, luthier, artist and creator of the first Knobloch Actives strings in Germany in 1971. His passion for the guitar and his desire to find the perfect sound led him to create Knobloch Actives, high quality strings designed for professional guitarists.
In 2009, Gilles Baudu, a guitarist with the same passion as Jiri, decided to resume his activity, move it to the province of Girona (Spain) and put into practice the knowledge gained from the Maestro. Since then, we make the strings in Spain and distribute them around the world.
Thanks to close cooperation with a large family of artists, violin makers and professionals from the world of music, we are still discovering new and better ways to make your guitar sing and come to life.
