Orphee is a Chinese musical accessory brand specializing in instrument strings, founded in 2013 and produced by Huizhou Shiyun Musical Co., Ltd. in Huiyang, Huizhou City, Guangdong. The company integrates design, R&D, manufacturing, and sales of strings for electric, acoustic, and classical guitars, as well as bass guitars and violins. Its other in-house brands include Caye and HAT.
The brand is best known for budget-friendly strings sold widely through online retailers in more than 40 countries. Popular product lines include the RX series of nickel-plated steel electric guitar strings (such as the RX15 super light .009–.042 set), the NX series of acoustic strings, and the VX series of hexagonal-core nickel-alloy bass strings. Orphee also markets coated and color-coated string sets aimed at players looking for an inexpensive alternative to mainstream string makers.
Within guitar and bass communities, Orphee occupies a value-tier niche, often discussed on forums like TalkBass and Squier-Talk as a low-cost option that performs reasonably for the price. The brand does not promote signature artist endorsements in the way Western string makers do, and its profile is driven primarily by direct-to-consumer e-commerce rather than artist marketing.
Orphee has 3 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Strings. Their gear is featured by 1 artist, with the strongest followings in Rock. Notable users include Big Boss.
