Frequently Asked Questions About Guo

Guo instruments are manufactured in mainland China, utilizing a combination of automated processes and skilled artisan craftsmanship within their own facilities.

While initially aimed at intermediate players, Guo's professional-level Grenaditte and New Voice series have found favor with experienced flutists seeking a distinct sound and modern design.

The Slate material, used in select New Voice bass flutes, is chosen for its unique acoustic properties, intended to impart a darker, more resonant tone and a slightly different playing experience.
