The story so far... FOUNDED IN 1925 BY JOHN EDWARD KLUSON, THE KLUSON MANUFACTURING Company expanded from a small machine shop by building its reputation as the music industry’s premier supplier of tuning machines, tailpieces, brackets, bushings, and other stringed instrument parts during the golden age of guitar manufacturing from the 1940s through the 1960s. After the original Kluson Manufacturing Company closed its doors sometime in the early 1980’s the Kluson brand was acquired by WD® Music Products’ VP, Larry Davis, in 1993. With very little historic information, other than a few old catalogs to work from, Larry Davis made a commitment to rebuild the Kluson brand, with respect to its historical legacy. He began with the re-engineering of Kluson’s Deluxe Series Tuning Machines. Moving the brand into the 21st century, the ever-expanding Kluson catalog now features many more upgraded versions of both traditional and contemporary tuning machines, a large range of bridges, tailpieces, bushings, brackets, and other made in the USA hardware selections have been added. All with the unwavering quality and historical accuracy that Larry Davis has remained committed to. Returning the Kluson brand to its place in history has always been the ultimate goal, and that history is being made now. As the demand for stringed instrument parts continues to rise, Kluson is designing each new addition with performance, ease of installation, and dedication to quality.
