Donner Music, the global music technology company focusing on developing instruments that overdeliver on tone, value and innovation, announced they will be showcasing their all-star lineup of best-selling products and revealing new instruments at this year’s NAMM conference.

Building on the success of their new digital pianos, electronic drum sets, and the DST Family series electric guitars, Donner was set to deliver more innovative products with new technology and advanced materials including:

The Carbon Fiber Series String Instruments – Several new carbon fiber instruments join Donner’s growing MI product range and can be demoed at this year’s NAMM. Donner Carbon Fiber Instruments, including guitars, violins and ukuleles (launching in early July) are crafted using an innovative new manufacturing technique allowing Donner to deliver extremely precise instruments that are thinner, more durable and stable than the traditional wooden counterparts, while still gives a bright and sweet tone. The Donner design team improved resonance by 35% over other carbon fiber guitars and also crafted a new improved classic tone that is brighter with a fuller low-end.

DST Family Series Electric Guitar Donner’s DST Family presents multiple series for guitarists at different stages of their career. With surprising performance of superb tone and value, you can start the journey of music in a fast pace. Being the most important member in the Family, the DST-400 guitar, which has announced its debut at NAMM Believe in Music 2022, features a premium alder body with classic tones. The PUSH-PULL knob produces the single-coil sound with incredible clarity and no volume loss. Featuring a 2-point Tremolo system with Cold-Rolled Steel Block, this guitar gives you added sustain and playability. HSS pickups produce 7 classic sounds for a rich musical experience. With its C-shaped neck contour and meticulous workmanship, the DST-400 is a reliable choice for musicians in pursuit of greatness.

Donner Yellow Fall Analog Delay Pedal ($39.99 MSRP), Perhaps the best bang-for-the-buck guitar delay pedal on the market for the last 10 years, the Donner Yellow Fall Analog Delay Pedal is a compact all-analog delay stompbox that reproduces warm and natural vintage analog delay sound.

Donner DDP-80 Digital Piano ($649.99 MSRP), The DDP-80 combines classic piano quality with the aesthetics of a modern home to provide a realistic acoustic piano playing experience. The 88 fully-weighted action keyboard simulates the acoustic piano, accurately expressing the subtle touch of each finger – heavier response in the lower register and progressively lighter in the upper register. The DDP-80 also features midi controls and the headphone jack making it a perfect compliment to any home studio.
