ABOUT GALLO GUITARS
Foreword
If you wanna know the truth, we don’t just make musical instruments. We make dreams. We make love. We make art. And with that, we #lightuptheworld.
Jose Gallo | Founder & CEO
The Guitars
Every single one of our instruments is a one-of-a-kind work of art designed and hand-crafted for optimal performance at our Gallo Guitars studio in Brooklyn, NY.
Made by artists for artists, and lighting up stages around the world with some of the coolest acts out there like Coldplay, Alejandro Sanz, Monsieur Periné and many more.
All of our Gallo Guitars are marked with the date and the corresponding edition number. You are not just acquiring some gear, you are investing in a work of art.

The Studio
Our goal as a studio is to enhance your musical experience. Whether you are playing or attending a show, we want to inspire love, art and creativity into you, so you can shine your light to the world.
The future is now, and we are an active part of it. From your heart, to our studio, to stages around the world, we continue to #lightuptheworld one note at a time.
