Sundberg Guitars is a Swedish company that produces handmade high-quality acoustic guitars. All instruments are available with a wide range of different options and custom details. Recently Sundberg delivered an Irish bouzouki to Swedish singer Lars Winnerbäck, and the instrument will soon be added to the company's lineup of instruments. An instrument built by Sundberg takes about 60 to 100 hours to complete, and so far about 75 have been built.
