The brand is probably best known for its Old Town Series, a line of acoustic guitars and ukuleles inspired by early-20th-century parlor and small-body instruments, with models such as the OT-62, OT-63, and OT-64. Farida positions these alongside more contemporary dreadnought, electric, and bass offerings aimed at players looking for affordable working instruments rather than boutique showpieces.

In the United States, Farida is distributed by Elderly Instruments. The brand has been endorsed by a number of UK indie and rock artists, including Frank Turner, The Vaccines, Bombay Bicycle Club, and Sandi Thom.

Farida has 20 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Acoustic-Electric Guitars, Solid Body Electric Guitars, and Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitars. Their gear is featured by 14 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Electronic, and Pop. Notable users include Sam Halliday, Richie Sambora, and Steve Rothery.
