THE STORY
My name is Akbar. In 2013, I was introduced to the world of guitars.
From my very first design project, I fell in love.
I became an assistant to a luthier, absorbing knowledge from some of the finest guitar makers. Over time, I earned the trust to lead as a production manager.
For 12 years, I lived through guitars.
A life that felt steady. Full of direction. I thought I had found my true path. But life doesn’t always go the way we plan. I resigned, hoping to build something new. Instead, I fell into darkness. I tried several types of businesses that had nothing to do with guitars. None of them lasted more than five months.
My days were filled with anxiety. My savings ran out. I had no steady income. Every time I looked into the eyes of my wife and child, I felt an unbearable guilt. I had lost everything my identity, my hope, my sense of direction.
In the silence, I picked up my old guitar again. Not to play… but simply to sit with it. To survive. But the sound was different this time.
Each note felt like it was speaking to me. It wasn’t just music it was a friend, reaching out its hand while I stood on the edge. That day, I didn’t heal.
But I made it through one more day. And then another. And another.
That guitar kept me breathing.
My wife saw the small change in me. She said gently,
“If that guitar can heal you… maybe it can heal someone else too.”
That sentence sparked something inside me. I began building guitars again.
But this time, they were more than just instruments.
I created guitars with feeling.
Guitars designed not just for performance—but for peace. For presence. As a tool for meditation and self-connection.
For those who are anxious. For those who feel lost.
For those longing to be present and alive in their own lives.
Because if this guitar could help me heal…
Maybe it can help you come back to life, too.
