We Craft Your Sound

At Xander Electronics, we believe music should be pure freedom. That’s why we design technology that takes care of the complex details behind the scenes, so you can focus on what matters: playing, feeling, and creating.

Driven by curiosity and a relentless push for innovation, we are constantly exploring new ways to make your rig effortless and your tone truly your own.

The Spark: Where Circuits Meet Chords

Xander Electronics was born from a lifelong obsession. Long before he picked up a guitar, our founder Arturo was just a kid with a screwdriver, fascinated by how the world worked. While other kids played with toys, he was taking them apart to study their insides.

That childhood curiosity paved the way for serious academic pursuit, culminating in a degree in Electronic Engineering from the Polytechnic of Turin, with a deep specialization in Analog and Power Design. When Arturo finally picked up his first guitar in high school, his two greatest passions—sound and circuitry—collided. In 2006, the foundational spark of Xander Electronics was ignited.

Shaped by the Players

Great gear isn’t built in a vacuum; it’s built on stages, in studios, and through real collaboration. Arturo’s journey was guided by friends and mentors who believed in his vision through every success and setback.

A pivotal chapter began with Andrea Capurso, master luthier and founder of Capurso Guitars. Andrea welcomed Arturo into the vibrant, practical world of working musicians, showing him firsthand what players actually need and how to shape technology around their hands and ears. In 2014, this mentorship evolved into a deep collaboration, with Arturo crafting and installing handmade pickups tailored specifically for Andrea’s extraordinary instruments.

Completing the Circuit

That same year, Arturo crossed paths with Alessandro, a brilliant Computer Science researcher at the Polytechnic of Turin. What started as simple requests for custom effects and technical tweaks quickly evolved into long, impassioned discussions about music, innovation, and pushing the boundaries of what gear could do.

As their friendship deepened, so did their creative synergy. By early 2015, Alessandro officially joined the team. By merging Arturo’s analog mastery with Alessandro’s digital and software expertise, the modern iteration of Xander Electronics was born—ready to help musicians everywhere discover their ultimate sound.
