Brazen brand guitars were typically made in China (the Fantasy Series, Eternity Series, and the Dynasty Series models) for distribution in the USA, although they also had an American Series of guitars made in their USA custom shop in Plainview, New York. The Brazen brand was created in 2005 by Steve Tsai in Covina, California, whose family had been in musical instrument manufacturing since 1948. Brazen was active until at least 2014 but their website is now inactive.
