About D’Addario history & their achievements
In 1918, Charles D’Addario begun manufacturing his strings in a tiny garage shop behind the family home on 14th Street in Astoria, Queens, New-York USA.
In 1947, when Dupont™ shipped a sample to the D’Addario shop, Charles and John, Sr. immediately began working with it and found the diameter of the early nylon was perfect for treble harp strings which a few years later became the standard materials for the nylon classical guitar strings. In 1956, with his father’s blessing, John, Sr. entered into a partnership to produce steel strings and electric strings for the guitar and bass. In 1984, the company relocated to a larger facility to handle the increased demand for their products with 150 employees. The largest expansion was in 1994, when the company relocated to a new 110,000 – sq. foot facility in Farmingdale. Today D’Addario & Company, Inc. occupies a total of 190,000 – sq. feet at its Farmingdale headquarters, an additional 51,000 – sq. feet at the Rico manufacturing facility in California, and employs more than 900 people, each one of them making an invaluable contribution to what has always been a family business. The research and development arm of D’Addario is one of its strongest assets. Headed by James, the engineering department has accumulated many important manufacturing and product patents in the field. At present time, the company have many successful other brands such as their newest product line additions, such as Evans Drumheads (1995), the Planet Waves (1998), HQ Practice Products, drum silencing and silent practice products (2004) and Rico Reeds (2004).
