The COVID-19 lockdown hit one U.S. guitar maker hard.  

Maryland Governor Larry Hogan announced a partial reopening of the state last Friday. 

The decision to reopen some non essential businesses, has been a relief for Paul Reed Smith (PRS), a high end guitar manufacturer. 

The company kept 374 employees on its payroll during the two month shutdown, applied for and received a Small Business Administration loan, taking on millions of dollars in debt.
