PP Guitars
Hadn’t heard of this guitar company before. Interesting.
From the site:
PP-guitars started as a hobby creating the guitar I never found (or could afford).
I’m a freelance Illustrator, and has often “designed” my own guitar. As an active musician i have played a number of well known brands, but there has always been “something wrong” and modifications had to be done.
I started sketching and drawing on my computer, bought a lot of books, bought special tools and a lot of expensive hardwood….and began building, and learning…..patience! My son Kim Lykke Pedersen has joined me in the workshop, adding a custom-built CNC router. He is a toolmaker and 3D artist.
This gives us a possibility to take our products to a very accurate and high standard. Now we start a new design with a 3D render, which we refine until the perfect “look” is achieved. There is a big pleasure of combining fine hardwoods into a new design, adding quality hardware, and go playing Rock´n´roll.

This is guy is amazing. Fantastic bass player who plays with Chick Corea, John Faviccha, Carl Filipiak and Al Di Meola.
And he designs his own line of bass pre-amps.
