Music is more than sound. It’s identity. It’s expression. It’s belonging.
Tribe was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to build instruments that are not just flawlessly crafted but that embody the spirit of those who play them. We didn’t just want to create incredible basses and guitars. We wanted to create something bigger: a tribe of musicians united by the same passion and the same drive to make a mark on the world.

IT ALL STARTED IN MY WORKSHOP…

I’m Davide Garbujo, and my journey began in 2007, in my workshop, where I handcrafted instruments for passionate musicians from all over the world. Every bass and guitar that took shape under my hands was more than just wood and strings—it was an extension of the soul of the player. But I knew my dream went further. I wanted to create something bigger. A true Tribe.
To make that dream a reality, I traveled the world, seeking out those who lived and breathed music as intensely as I did. That’s when I met John, my Korean partner. Bound by the same vision, we founded a workshop in Seoul, where today, alongside a team of six master luthiers, we craft uncompromising instruments—built with one goal in mind: to give musicians a powerful, authentic, and unmistakable voice.
Over the last four years, Luca has joined the Tribe family, bringing his vision and expertise to shape the Tribe digital world. From the website to the configurator, from strategy to execution, Luca is the mind that brings our online presence to life and helps guide the direction of Tribe alongside me.

A TRIBE THAT PLAYS AS ONE

Every Tribe bass and guitar is crafted with soul. From the choice of materials to the design, from the sound to the playability—everything is built for those who see music as a mission. And choosing Tribe isn’t just about picking an instrument; it’s about joining a real community of artists, rebels, and creators. A family that speaks through sound, that recognizes one another from the first note, and that isn’t afraid to be heard.
Playing a Tribe means being part of something bigger. It means connecting with fellow musicians, sharing experiences, and growing together. Our community is our strength—each artist who chooses Tribe carries forward a story of passion, innovation, and freedom.

Welcome to the Tribe. Here, music is more than just sound. It’s a bond.
