About Us

Our Story

Founded in 1999 in the heart of Amsterdam by master luthier Henrik Bobsaar, Bobsaar began as a boutique workshop dedicated to blending traditional European craftsmanship with exceptional playability. Henrik’s vision was simple: to move beyond mass production and provide musicians with instruments that are true partners in expression. Today, we honor that legacy by handpicking and rigorously evaluating every guitar in our collection for its resonance, character, and soul. From jazz clubs to recording studios, Bobsaar continues to represent the finest luthiers, bridging time-honored traditions with modern innovation for discerning guitarists worldwide.

Our Philosophy

At Bobsaar, excellence begins with selection. We handpick every instrument in our collection, subjecting each to rigorous technical evaluation—from fretwork to resonance—ensuring only the finest guitars bear our name. We bridge the gap between tradition and responsibility by partnering with ethical luthiers who prioritize sustainability and craftsmanship. Whether you seek the warmth of a nylon-string or the clarity of a solid-body electric, we are dedicated to matching you with your perfect tonal partner. Beyond the sale, Bobsaar offers a lifetime of support, maintenance, and expertise, ensuring your instrument remains a source of inspiration for years to come.
