Many musical instruments are mass-produced in countries like China, but supporting domestic or specialty makers ensures unique, high-quality craftsmanship. Musicians should consider the environmental and ethical impact of their instruments. Some materials come from endangered species or unsustainable sources. Choosing makers who prioritize sustainability and ethical production is crucial for responsible music-making.
