A

t Saga, quality is designed in. From 
the beginning our overriding concern

has been to provide the finest quality 
instruments, parts and accessories at
affordable prices. You won’t pay a premium
for our brand names.

Quality control is the cornerstone of our
entire operation. Careful attention is
applied to every detail, from design 
criteria to selection and supervision of
manufacturers to final inspection and
setup in our West Coast facility. Detailed
specifications and repeated inspections
assure that every product we sell meets our
high standards for quality, durability and
performance.

New products are developed continuously
to meet the evolving needs of musicians.
Each product has the look, sound, feel and
playing characteristics demanded by the
most critical professional musicians. Our
tradition-inspired proprietary products
recreate, adapt or improve on historic
designs to meet contemporary playing
requirements — all without sacrificing
characteristics that appeal to the purist.

Our roots are in traditional American 
fretted instruments but our commitment 
to affordable quality extends to every 
product we sell. If you bought it from Saga,
you bought the best product at the best 
possible price.
