WHO WE ARE

Moriah Guitars is a biblically-led, faith-based, purpose-driven maker of fine stringed instruments.

 

The cornerstones of our company are honesty, integrity, transparency, innovation and uncompromised ethics. Our promise to you is that every guitar we build is faithfully crafted to the highest standards.

 

While our techniques, designs, and construction methods are cutting edge, we’ve been building exceptional guitars for more than four decades. So, the minute you pick up a Moriah guitar, you’ll immediately understand the advantage of having the best-of-both-worlds in your hands

"

First and foremost, we acknowledge that the gifts required to design and build superlative guitars are literally heaven sent. With that in mind, every guitar that wears the Moriah logo is intentionally crafted to honor the divine source of those gifts.

We blend innovative designs, state-of-the art technology and time-honored styling to bring you the most visually appealing, versatile and finest-playing instruments available.

HOW ARE WE DIFFERENT

IN EVERY WAY!

OUR HISTORY

In our almost 45- year history, we’ve helped countless musicians in their quest for tone. Along the way, we’ve discovered scores of incremental enhancements, modifications and techniques that enhance tone, and we’ve incorporated them into our new K2 as well as our other models.

OUR TONES ARE HEAVY
OUR GUITARS ARE NOT

While most players want great sustain, the last thing they want is back strain from wearing a 12-pound guitar at every gig.

 

MORIAH GUITARS HAVE YOUR BACK

Our guitars are radically chambered and while the K2, for example, weighs in at a mere 5 to 6.5 pounds, our chambering technique helps relieve weight while increasing sustain and resonance.
