Nestled in the heart of East Java, Mount Bromo stands as one of Indonesia’s most iconic active volcanoes – revered for its striking beauty and spiritual significance. Its name, Bromo, is derived from the Javanese pronunciation of Brahma, the Hindu god of creation. This powerful and enduring symbol of nature’s majesty serves as the inspiration and namesake for Bromo Guitars.
East Java is home to a vibrant music culture, brought to life each year at the acclaimed Jazz Gunung Bromo festival. Set in a natural open-air amphitheater beneath the majestic peak, the festival unites local and international jazz artists in a celebration of sound, tradition and innovation. This passion for music runs deep in the region, inspiring not only live performances but also the art of fine instrument craftsmanship.
Inspired by the breathtaking presence of Mount Bromo and created to pay homage to it, Bromo Guitars were born within East Java. This region is renowned for its exceptional tonewoods, fertile soil and temperate climate, which, along with a rich tradition of luthiery, provides the perfect foundation for instrument making.

The result is a range of guitars that deliver unmatched clarity, depth and specification that reflect exceptional value within their price range. Every Bromo Guitar features the silhouette of Mount Bromo meticulously inlaid into its headstock, paying homage to the mountain and its cultural significance. Furthermore, each guitar series is inspired by legendary mountain ranges from around the world.
