12 years ago today Sandarac was founded.
Over the years we’ve changed our products, we started off just selling double basses, and now we sell most stringed instruments, accessories for them, and music-themed giftware; but we’ve kept true to our ethos throughout.
Our philosophy is to never buy or sell anything from the Far East; to only deal with European (and North American) suppliers that we know first hand; to ensure all our instruments are hand-crafted by experienced (and generally, master-) luthiers; to ensure all our accessories adhere to our principles and, where hand-made simply isn’t possible (for example for strings, stands, and some of our giftware), that they are made by small companies in small batches of high quality.
But we wouldn’t have lasted this long were it not for you, our lovely customers. So thank you for twelve years of custom and here’s to the next twelve!
