The Normandy guitar was born from a rocker’s love of classic guitars and the smooth, unique sound of aluminum streaming from the strings. In 2007, Jim Normandy started Normandy Guitars, the company that would make the world’s first production aluminum archtop. After 15 prototypes, the Normandy guitar was created.

Although the initial concepts focused around bass guitars, in 2005 Normandy Guitars switched to doing electric 6-string guitars to introduce them into the mainstream market.

Because of various tonal qualities and different grades of aluminum, it took time to get the right tone and sound until the specific design and the internal bracing was perfected. Now, with a patent pending since 2005, the final product is available for purchase and has gone from a dream to a solid contender in the guitar manufacturing world.
