Babicz Guitars has been an outstanding example of entrepreneurial leadership in Indiana. Ron Sheets, Project Manager of the Fort Wayne-Allen County Economic Development Alliance, realized the potential of the guitar company from the beginning. "When Babicz Guitars was looking to Fort Wayne for a place to expand its operation, we could see the economic benefit it would bring to the community along with the positive impact Babicz would have toward the revitalization of our downtown arts and entertainment district." Cheryl Schuster, Business Finance Manager of the Community Development Corporation of Northeast Indiana added, "Babicz is already making their mark in this part of the state and has been an important addition to the focus of growth in our downtown improvement plans."

Strategic planning and superior instrument design have been the foundation of the company's sensational performance. "In the big picture, we are taking the lead in guitar technology by creating and manufacturing higher-end acoustic and electric guitars with distinct advantages over other guitar brands," said Jeff Babicz, CEO and chief product designer of the company. Babicz designed the "icZ" Acoustic System which consists of three patented technologies incorporated into the design of each guitar, the Lateral Compression Soundboard, the Continually Adjustable Neck, and the adjustable Torque Reducing Bridge. The Continually Adjustable Neck has already been licensed by other well known brands, including C.F. Martin and Michael Kelly Guitars. Remarked Carano, "We also wanted to build a fully functional, exclusive showroom and Midwest fulfillment center. We accomplished that goal with the opening of our Fort Wayne, Indiana, facility." In addition, Babicz Guitars has been the recipient of numerous design awards, rave reviews in trade publications, and endorsements by noted artists who attest to the superior tonal quality of the instruments. As a result, the company has doubled in revenue every year since they were founded in 2003. For more information on Babicz Guitars business news, logon to www.babiczguitarsnews.com.
