Company Background

“Founded in 2012, Bohemian Guitars launched its first product line through a successful Kickstarter campaign in January 2013. Bohemian Guitars puts a creative spin on a timeless and classic instrument, the guitar, by creating one-of-a-kind electric guitars, basses, mandolins and ukuleles, using unconventional materials such as vintage oil cans and lunch boxes.”

“The inspiration behind the oil can guitar comes from the resourceful residents of the townships in South Africa who re-purpose used materials into playable instruments. Growing up in Johannesburg, South Africa, brothers Adam and Shaun Lee founded Bohemian Guitars with the purpose paying homage to their homeland by sharing the beautiful sounds of oil can guitars.”
