Composite Acoustics
Ellis Seal was working for an aerospace company, working long hours and never having the time to spend with his family or his hobby of guitar building. In 1998 he opened his own company and said goodbye to his aerospace career to focus on his dream. Ellis took an interest in composite structures and researched the correct balance of fibers to produce a great sounding instrument. His long hours paid off when he designed the first series of guitars with his own composite, which led to the early success of Composite Acoustics.
