Brand Profile
Global Music Technology Brand Founded in 2012
Since 2012, Donner has been committed to creating new experiences in music and performance. As a pioneer of innovative instruments and electronics, we were among the first to introduce the mini guitar pedals.
The company is dedicated to research, manufacturing, and the sale of musical instruments of all kinds. Relying on a strong and efficient R&D team, Donner has gradually earned a reputation for its high-quality and affordable musical instruments and accessories.
Founder Story
The power of music manifests itself as the agent of connection. Each of us is somewhat universally connected in the world of music, where we revisit our deepest surge of emotion.
The world is nothing but boring and bleak without music. My first guitar in high school always helped me to find my voice when words failed me. Every time I play a new song on the ball with my companion guitar, I love myself more. Playing music is fun. And it got more thrilling when I learnt to widen my taste for music, traveling through the expansively evocative world of music. In the sound, I could feel the echoes of ethos, the passion of the producer, beyond age and race, and across time and space. In music, we live as a whole.
Music is not under the purview of professionals and prodigies. It offers me so much that I decided to start my own business of musical instruments, missioned to make music more playable and accessible to everyone.
The business took off with our lines of effect pedals that give more substance to music, just like what music to us.
I hope everyone who loves music could better sync with their musical self with Donner.
