“I love it when world changing dreams break through into the here and now. I am pleased to partner with Duncan Africa to connect people who love guitars, with a chance to not only own an amazing instrument, but be a part of delivering a community from the clutches of poverty.”

Russ Rosen, May 2010

The Duncan Africa Society.

If there’s one thing we’re passionate about, it’s the eradication of poverty.

We’ve been going into the village of Mpigi, Uganda for eight years. We teach guitar-making and a host of other subjects. Fifty young people will graduate, form their own company and export to developed nations.

They will become agents of change in their village. Foreign aid will no longer be needed because their hard work, diligence and dedication to serving others will transform the community.

We are simply a spark to ignite the process.

“I love the vision of Duncan Africa and have used  DA guitars on my last tour. They are great instruments! And when you play one, you are playing more than a guitar. You are playing integrity and compassion"

Brian Doerkson, Feb 09

“I have been using my Duncan OM for a number of years now, and it is definitely my 'go to' guitar, both for live and studio.  It's beautifully made, great to play, and has a great open, balanced sound that others regularly comment on."

Brian Thiessen, Nov 08

Is it your time to design your dream guitar and support the dreams of young Africans to transform their community?

We believe you’ll be so impressed with the high quality, solid wood craftsmanship, the integrity and compassion of Duncan Africa, that your DA guitar will become your most loved, played and celebrated instrument for change.
