Rahan guitars are handmade in Texas. Rahan started in 1997 when Rick Cantu made a strat copy for a friend. Several custom guitars later he met skilled guitar maker Mike Curd who became his business partner. They founded Rahan guitars, named after Rick's daughters Rachel and Hannah. Rahan guitars were initially sold locally in Houston and Austin by word of mouth. In 2002 they launched their web site to make Rahan guitars more available to other areas. Circa 2019 the company is now called USA Guitars and deals in boutique electric guitars by other makers as well as offering Texas made Rahan instruments.
