The specialist in
vintage & high-end guitars.
We are located in Rijsbergen, the Netherlands. We specialize in vintage guitars. It's all about finding the perfect match between a passionate player and a beautiful guitar.
Sharing knowledge & passion.
Ten years ago we started The Guitar Company and sold a guitar to our first customer. Since that first sale we have united hundreds of guitar enthusiasts with the guitar of their dreams. Our guitars have found a new home in over 20 countries, have been used by artists and in studios and made people fall in love with vintage guitars.
Feel free to swing by in our shop. We are passionate about guitars and we love sharing that passion with fellow guitarists. Have a cup of coffee whilst talking about guitars or try out some of our best vintage models. We always have a broad selection of guitars in stock.
The Guitar Company is an initiative by Erwin van Waardenburg. I started playing guitar when I was ten years old. My first guitar was an old Silvertone and that sparked my interest for vintage guitars. Now, many years later, I am the proud owner of a collection with mainly rare, vintage Gibson guitars.
Erwin begon op jonge leeftijd met gitaar spelen. Hij is begonnen met een oude Silvertone en twintig jaar (en tientallen gitaren) later heeft hij een leuke collectie met voornamelijk vintage Gibson gitaren.
Throughout the years I have owned and played a large variety of guitars. Each instrument taught me something; how it should feel, what it should look like and most importantly, what it should sound like. If you need a recommendation or an advice, call me.
