Recent graduates in product and furniture design from Glasgow School of Art, they had an idea to start a manufacturing business. They worked on designs and prototypes of instruments and with the help of some start up funding, established a small workshop unit on the upper floor of a building at Leyden Gardens in the Maryhill area of Glasgow. Over a short 2 year period they set up Egypt Guitars and manufactured a range of high quality, originally designed instruments with suitable Egyptian names.
