Our Story

Our Vison

PHRED instruments was founded by Freddy Rose in 2011, with the vision to create tribute guitars, and guitars inspired by classic and iconic designs, where features and tone come together in an affordable package.
 

 

Our Mission

Affordable, High Quality, Feature-Rich Guitars

PHRED instruments listens to the needs of fellow guitar players in order to provide affordable instruments with features often only found in boutique and highly expensive instruments. In addition to being affordable, each guitar is highly valued and cared for by our team and professionally setup in Los Angeles prior to shipping in order to ensure smooth playability and outstanding tone. To that extent, PHRED instruments attempts to exceed the expectations of each customer with the understanding that buying an instrument is a very personal and intimate experience for each individual.
