Equilibrium Guitars is the life’s work of owner & head luthier Dave Cohen. For a decade prior to starting EQ, Dave had been obsessively dissecting, analyzing, rebuilding and improving guitars and basses to get down to what he felt were the core elements that made an instrument truly spectacular. This list of specific wood combinations, contours, construction styles and techniques, hardware and electronics options formed the playbook for what would eventually become Equilibrium. While in the process of prototyping his first original guitar models, Dave met Mariann; whose entrepreneurial spirit and shared uncompromising commitment to quality gave EQ the push it needed to become more than just an idea, but a fully-realized guitar company. Since then they have spent thousands of hours refining every aspect of their instruments to deliver what they believe is the finest playing experience possible.
