Historical Background

The Alpha A100 is part of an interesting chapter in Dutch guitar-making history. Alpha guitars were produced in the Netherlands by the former Egmond manufacturing operation under the ownership of Tolchin Instruments. Following a collaboration between Egmond and C.F. Martin & Co. that began in 1972, the factory produced guitars under the Vega name based on Martin designs. After this partnership ended in 1979, the Alpha brand continued as a separate line, including classical nylon-string models such as the A100.
