Motivation

  • In 2016, Uncle Wu founded a shop called "Uncle Wu’s Guitar Shop," where he introduced the concept of "Precise Setup," becoming the first dealer in the country to offer "Precise Setup and Lifetime Warranty”

  • In 2020, Uncle Wu launched a complete set of beginner guitar tutorial videos on social media platforms and established an online beginner guitar group. The only criterion for joining this group was that the guitar enthusiast must own a guitar had to be easy to play with low action. However, more than half of the guitars owned by guitar enthusiasts did not meet this standard. As a professional musician with nearly 10 years of experience in guitar making and repairing, Uncle Wu was encouraged by his followers to create a guitar specifically designed for beginners, offering Precise Setup and Lifetime Warranty, all at an affordable price.

  • In 2021, Uncle Wu founded Fivcil and launched its first product, the Essential S1, on May 21st. It became an instant hit, with every batch selling out immediately for an entire year, and it received almost no negative reviews for its quality.

Why the Name "Fivcil"

  • Fivcil is derived from "Five" and "Concil." "Five" represents Uncle Wu, and "Concil" refers to the initial board of directors, which originally consisted of five core members, thus creating the name Fivcil. All of the core members are passionate guitar players.
