CA Guitars, Inc. began as the brainchild of former Lockheed aerospace engineer Ellis Seal. Combining his skills as an engineer with his love of acoustic instruments, Seal began researching the possibility of utilizing advanced composite materials that could meet and even surpass the feel and tonal qualities of a traditional wooden guitar. Through this intensive research and development period, Seal found that the full potential of composites had remained unrealized in guitar-building. The end result of his efforts is a series of high-quality, superior-sounding acoustic guitars and basses with unparalleled tone, strength, and playability.

CA’s patented Acoustic Tailoring™ technology combined with our desire for innovation at all levels of the guitar-building process makes for ground-breaking acoustic instruments like the Legacy™ acoustic guitar, Legacy AE™, AT-6™ Alternate Tuning Guitar™, and the Vortex™ series of Fretted and Fretless Acoustic Bass Guitars. CA’s guitars and basses are designed by and manufactured entirely from the best of American craftsmanship, products, and technology.

Elixir® Strings are a vital component of any CA acoustic guitar. Pocket Full of Rocks acoustic guitarist Michael Farren recently told us that during a 7-hour live concert audio/video recording project, his ELIXIR-strung Legacy AE™ stayed perfectly in tune for the entire duration of the session.

The attributes of Elixir® Strings are obvious the first time you play them – smooth, reliable tone and uncanny strength and durability. Elixir® Strings are a perfect compliment to CA’s composite acoustic guitars.
