Guitar Summit 2026

Join us at the Guitar Summit 2026!

From September 25 to 27, the Rosengarten in Mannheim once again turns into the mecca of the guitar scene and of course we’ll be right in the middle of it again!
As every year, the Guitar Summit is THE event par excellence when it comes to the music industry. A weekend packed with guitars, basses, and everything else that goes with it.
Whether during the day with words, wit, and knowledge at our two booths (Yes, this year we’re once again there with Lakewood and our Guitar Competence Center), in the evening in front of the Mozart Hall stage, or late at night relaxing in the hotel bar around the corner - we’re looking forward to everyone who wants to spend some time with us!

What’s new?

Yes, exactly, that’s the most important thing!
After we were already able to thrill you last year with the new Tschabo electric guitar, we can officially announce here and now that we have another electric guitar in our luggage - the Brett!! It’s one hell of a slab! We can already promise you that - cool look, cool sound, and above all cool handling! As if that weren’t enough, we’re also presenting the new 3D electric guitar configurator (we call it the Guitar Designer), which we’ve taken to a new level with its functions and graphic display. Come by and try it out right away!
Two weeks before the trade fair starts, you’ll be able to enjoy an exclusive gallery here on our website, where you can get a first look at the models we’ll be showing you at the Guitar Summit in Mannheim. It’ll be worth coming back!
