Echopark Guitars
Echopark Guitars is an American guitar and bass manufacturer which started in Echo Park, Los Angeles, CA. Now located in Detroit, Michigan, the instruments are made by Gabriel Currie, who previously worked for and learned from legendary guitar inventors Leo Fender at G&L Guitar Company and Tak Hosono at Hosono Guitar Works before starting Echopark Guitars. Echopark players include Joe Perry and Bradley Whitford of Aersomith, Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age, actor Johnny Depp, and the German guitarist Azhar Kamal. A limited number of Echopark guitars are produced each year, making them highly sought. Currie utilizes aged and in some cases, ancient woods in the production of the instruments.
