Our second year at Guitar Summit, new releases and even stronger Bond to Music
Guitar Summit 2025 is officially finished, and we are proud to mark our second appearance at Europe’s biggest guitar exhibition. Returning to Mannheim felt both familiar and inspiring. Last year’s debut brought us live demos, an audience from around the world and a true feeling of becoming part of a community that values creativity and meaningful craftsmanship. This year we came back with even more to share and an even better Bond to Music.
Guitar Summit 2025 became the first public stage for our new line of effect pedals. The response from musicians, reviewers and fellow builders exceeded our expectations. AMAZONA.de highlighted these pedals as one of the exciting new elements at our booth, noting the unique visual identity, character and engineering choices that make them stand out. For us, this release marks an important step in expanding the Bond Guitars universe beyond instruments and into a full ecosystem of tools designed to shape the musician’s sound.
Another highlight was the premiere of the Bond Nox Custom '2025, a glitter-finish guitar built specifically for this year’s exhibition. It instantly became a crowd magnet. Visitors stopped to take photos, ask about the materials and explore its character and playability. Seeing musicians connect with a guitar that started as an idea on the page is the kind of moment that defines our Bond to Music philosophy.
This year’s Guitar Summit was also filled with meaningful encounters. We had the pleasure of speaking with outstanding musicians and content creators, including Rabea Massaad, Ana Pshokina, Mad Steex, Sonic Drive Studio and Guitarraviva. Interviews were recorded, demos were played and conversations sparked new inspiration. Moments like these remind us how important community is in building the future of modern guitar craft.
Across all three days, our booth was filled with guitarists exploring familiar and new Bond Guitars models, testing prototypes, sharing feedback and asking deep, thoughtful questions about design and construction. These conversations are what we value most. They help us grow, refine our ideas and continue creating instruments that feel personal for each player. As members of the EGB European Guitar Builders association, we remain committed to contributing to the shared culture of independent craftsmanship across Europe.
Thank you to everyone who visited, played, filmed, listened or simply came to say hello. Your curiosity and passion fuel our work.
Here is to another year of innovation and a deeper Bond to Music. See you at European guitar exhibitions in 2026!
