Who We Are

A Guitar Factory Buyers Can Verify, Not Just Trust

Changsha YBUL Instrument Co., Ltd. was founded in 2015 in Changsha, Hunan — China's "Star City" — as an integrated musical instrument manufacturer and exporter. Our status as a manufacturer and trading company is verified, and our premises have been assessed onsite by SGS Group.

We run a 2,500㎡ office and R&D center plus two production factories. Our 101–200 skilled staff handle everything from timber selection to final setup, and our team works with several international instrument brands alongside our own YBUL label.

We are not a cheap-product workshop. Our goal is consistent quality, honest communication and reasonable pricing — the basis of long-term, win-win partnerships.
