Presentation of Doppler Guitars

2. Doppler Guitars was started as a result of desire
to build our own unique and custom electric
guitars. We felt the need for a space to create,
experiment, customize, repair and maintain
electric guitars. It brought together Girish
Prabhu (guitarist and musician) and Thomas
Abraham (luthier, designer, craftsman) under a
common roof to relook at music from the side of
the instrument itself.

3. So began the journey of pooling in both our
expertise, the love of music, passion and the
grasp of materials and craftsmanship that
was involved in building such an instrument.
Our ideas finally found cohesion in the
formation of Doppler Guitars

4.  Lack of a high-end guitar making company and
luthiers for solid body guitars in India
 High end guitars are totally out of reach of people in
general due to their extremely high prices
 Quality guitars from the west become quite
unaffordable due to pricing in dollars and labour costs
being very high in the west, forcing people to buy
guitars of known brands, but still made in china

5.  Not all guitar models are available readily, as
seen on brochures/websites
 Lack of professional centers for repair and
maintenance
 Shipping costs add another 20% to the price

6.  We can offer very competitive prices especially on
high end guitars, because the wood required is easily
available in India, like Mahogany, Rosewood which are
often used on high end guitars
 We can offer greater margins for retailers for bulk
orders
 A high end guitar making company in India can turn
things around and make high end guitars affordable
and within the reach of people in general

7.  TwoYearsWarranty
 Low cost on transportation
 Servicing and maintenance easily within
reach

8.  We aim at making quality guitars by keeping our
production and numbers limited so that each
guitar is given utmost priority. Hence, quality is
not compromised.
 We provide a variety of finishes: solid color paint
finish, stained finish, graphics on body, gloss or
matt finish. Hence, the customer has a wide
range to choose from.
 We bring variety in our models in terms of
hardware as well.

9.  We use genuine imported hardware parts
(like tuners, pickups, bridges, electronics) for
high end guitars. Hence the customer can be
assured of the sound and quality.
 Our high-end models offer highly competitive
prices compared to other well known brands.
 The quality of finish is maintained through all
models (low end to high end)

10.  We are much more accessible because we are
based in India. Hence, stores can directly get
in touch with us for maintenance and repair.
 We also have Doppler Custom Shop, where
one can get a custom guitar made specific to
his/her requirement, and can choose the type
of design, finish (including graphics)and
hardware at very affordable prices.

11. • All our guitars are manufactured in Bangalore
