Goldon was established in 1936 in Markneukirchen, Germany to produce high quality recorders. By the end of the 1940s the range was extended to include music toys, harmonicas, zithers, children's clarinets, castanets, children's guitars and xylophones. Goldon also made acoustic archtop guitars and acousic basses.
