I use Knobloch strings on all my instruments.
The founder of the company was Jiří Knobloch, who ran a music shop in Munich together with his wife Renate. He was a classical guitarist, guitar teacher and publisher, and being not satisfied with the strings available, he started to make his own. His Knobloch Actives were highly regarded and used by many distinguished players. He also built some guitars himself. His shop in Munich was an institution - the hub of the Munich guitar scene. In 2009, Gilles Baudu, a classical guitarist himself, took over the company including all machines, materials and, most importantly, the know-how. I know that Jiří would be very happy if he could see and hear where Gilles has taken his strings. Maybe he can.
Here you can read more about my own story with Knobloch strings, some of my thoughts about the strings, and why some of my guitars are built from wood bought by Jiří Knobloch in the late 1970s.
