About Us
The Beginning - 1979
The beginning of our story is a familiar one. A couple of professional musicians meet while horse-trading equipment and instruments and strike up a friendship. Soon, we found that our knowledge, talent and enthusiasm meet a need in the local music scene, and our friendship expanded into business ventures.
That First Bag - 1986
One of our first goals – find a better way to transport the plethora of gear we needed to and from music gigs, something better than the current makeshift choices… duffle-bags, overstuffed guitar cases, even plastic grocery bags in a pinch.
And who better to design a musician’s carry-all than a couple of old pros? We dumped out the contents of own guitar cases and took inventory. Everything in that pile was vital. Everything in that pile needed a spot in the new carry-all. And everything in that pile needed to be easily accessible in the finished product.
Music Express - 1994
The PFX1 was just the first of the music industry accessories we manufactured. By 1994, we founded Music Express, an OEM/ODM design and manufacturing group serving the music products industry. Music Express has evolved into a leading global supplier to many of the music and pro audio industry’s premier brands. We design and manufacture bags, cases and carrier systems for keyboards, pro audio and woodwinds & brass, stands & support hardware, wire & cable, miscellaneous guitar accessories and turnkey stringed instrument and drum.
