Samick

Knabe & Co., Pramberger, Kohler & Campbell, and Seiler; and guitars under the brands Greg Bennett, Silvertone, Stony River, and San Mateo.

This 214,000 sq ft (19,900 m2) facility is responsible for all administrative activities for the North American market, as well as acting as a distribution center for its guitars and acoustic/digital pianos.

[citation needed] Samick guitars are manufactured under different brand names and made by a number of different makers, including Greg Bennett and J.T.

Woods used include ovangkol and ebony from Africa, rosewood from India, and rock maple from North America.

In 2004, Samick gained controlling interest in competitor Young Chang, but antitrust rulings in the U.S. and Korea ended the merger a year later.

In October 2008, Samick announced its purchase of Seiler, another German piano company, that is generally agreed to compete with Bechstein at both price point and overall quality.

[7] Besides Olympic-level archery equipment, Samick also manufactures the very popular budget-oriented Sage and Polaris hunting bows.
