(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, October 06, 2014 ) Tulsa, OK -- Tulsa based BigDogGuitar™ started in 2006 as an evening project after work. It silently sold guitar related items on commission. In 2007 when Rex Turner the owner of BigDogGuitar was laid off after 30 years at Lowrance Electronics, he decided not to re-enter the workforce opting to expand his online business and follow an entrepreneurial path.
After a crazy build up to 400 affiliate websites, sanity kicked in, and he decided to go back to his roots. Most of his websites were turned off and a new chapter began with their introduction of a branded guitar accessory line. Their first product in this line is a high end electroplated gold metal capo backed with a lifetime replacement guarantee.
Rex stated "We noticed that there were many junk capos out there. Unsuspecting customers would buy them and then realize they were no good. So we wanted to provide the customer with a great guitar capo." His number one priority on this design was to track down a manufacturing facility that could build a quality capo. Rex said that quality drove the design much more than cost.
Guitar has been a passion of Rex's since he was 11 years old when he and his dad made a solid body electric guitar from scratch. The matching amp was made from a short wave radio. This rig was actually used to play live gigs until eventually he got better equipment. It is one of his fondest memories. While he was in several rock bands, none would qualify as "well known".
The decision to enter the guitar space in accessories was determined because of the massive undertaking required to develop a line of guitars or amps. This also drove him to the ODM model.
"The ODM model is used by some of the biggest companies in the world. We believe that we can bring high quality while keeping costs in check for our customers. It just takes attention to detail in all phases from start to finish. We want to provide value for the customer first." said Rex.
