Ely guitars are custom-made works of art. Each one is hand-crafted, distinctive, and created exclusively for musicians who want the very best in sound quality — and classic beauty. And they are brought to you straight from the Rock and Roll Capital of the World: Cleveland, Ohio!

Serious guitarists need a serious instrument. One that meets every detail that makes playing music virtually effortless. From design (neck and bodies by Attila Csapo) to Sperzel locking machine heads (made in Cleveland), to wood tone (northwest, south American, and Amish supplied local woods), and custom painted to a glossy finish by Gary Uhas... Ely Guitars are stellar in every unique feature.

“We’re just trying to make the absolute best guitar we possibly can,” says Chad Ely, a veteran guitarist who has worked with hundreds of musicians, producing more than 300 albums throughout his long-standing career.
