YES, ITS ABSOLUTELY TRUE, CRAVEN TENOR GUITARS IS COMING BACK.

We are presently presuing 4 new Tenor Guitar models to bring you late in 2026. Watch for the release of the prototypes to being in August 2026, Each very unique, Crafted to Legacy Standards to give you a lifetime of enjoyment.

The insanity of the MAGA Trump Tariffs continually fluctuating made it incredibly difficult for our friendly American Customers. Some customers in march 2025 were hit with over $400 in Tariffs. It was obvious Craven could not continue to support our great friends. In October, 2025 Craven Tenor Guitars closed its doors.

Since then, The Supreme Court gave ruling that his self impose Tariffs were in fact NOT LEGAL, and struck them down. In doing so, Tariffs on Canadian ( and goods from around the world) dropped from 75% to the present 10% and again, after being struck down those knee jerk tariffs have been deemed unconstitutional and illegal. While you may not see them visible, tariffs are imposed on all goods flowing into the United States and paid by those importing goods ( who pass those costs onto you). Simply put that’s why something you once paid $10.00 for is now costing you $11.50 or more, the reality of Tariffs is inflation. There is light at the end of the tunnel and its not a train coming at you, it’s the Midterms.

Craven is presently offering ( tariff free) publications for your enjoyment until we can get back to the passion we love most, Creating High Quality, Professional Grade Tenor Guitars for our Tenor Community world wide.

I look forward to bringing you a special announcement in August of 2026, please stay tuned or follow us on Facebook and TikTok.
Sincerely,
