"Our Mission is to provide the world with beautifully designed, very high-end and extremely bad ass electric guitars at the most affordable prices possible."
-Ryan Cook
"Esoterik Guitars started as a high end, custom guitar manufacturer in 2010. Since day one they have been dedicated to designing and producing the highest quality electric guitars available. They now sell to and work with some of the most elite artists and clients on the planet. This is because they spare no expense and their guitars play like a dream. If you haven’t yet, simply try one and you’ll understand."
"Ryan Cook is the Founder and Owner of Esoterik Guitars and the master luthier behind the design and building process of these instruments. He has worked with many high-end manufacturers including KB Custom Guitars, Ernie Ball Music Man, and National Reso-Phonic Guitars. While making guitars with these companies, he has figured out what works and doesn’t work in guitar design and functionality. He has also developed techniques to enhance important attributes in the products final overall look, feel, sound, balance and playability. Ryan Cook has also played guitar in many different bands since he was a teenager and knows what works best on stage, at home, and in the studio."
"Neck through designs are found in true high-end stringed instruments. The whole guitar is stronger and can handle more abuse. The neck woods extend from the headstock (with no scarf joint) through the center of the body. This is where the majority of the instrument's tone is created. This feature helps produce unmatched tone and sustain. This also keeps the instruments in tune and intonated better and keeps smooth continuous playability when reaching the high notes without interference of a clumsy heel or bolt on neck."
