As mentioned earlier, I was interviewed for FUZZ Magazine earlier in the summer. The new issue containing the article and reviews of three of my guitars, a two page spread, is now out! If you happen to understand Swedish, run and buy it or download it...
Learn MoreI met up with one of my customers, Gareth Parry, in London the other day. His band, Monkey See Monkey Do, had a gig at the Roxy Bar and Screen with a live re-score of the 1966 surrealist Czech film Daisies. It was a very fun (albeit hot) evening, the music blending with the film perfectly. Gareth took #3 for a spin and enjoyed it a lot. His own project, featuring a Klein-type body, chunky Tele-style neck and EGS tuners, is all but ready. I hope to have pictures here soon when it is completed. Next up is Washington, DC. I will be there between 13 and 17 of June. Please let me know if you are in the area and would like to meet...
Learn MoreLately, I have disassembled, cleaned and prepped #2 for shipping to Japan. Its new owner is Shun Nokina, famous (locally) stompbox builder located in Tokyo. Check out his demonstration videos of “Redemptionist” and other pedals on YouTube – they have some very nice and unique properties. Shun disclosed to me that discussions are on-going regarding representation outside of Japan, which we look forward to. Now, it’s time to turn attention to #5 and #6 – 7 and 8 string neck-trough-body...
Learn MoreI will be in London (around Canary Wharf) between the 7th and 9th of June. If you are in the London area and would like to take one of the EGS guitars for a spin, let me know and I will bring it.
Learn MoreI have added three more clips featuring Jonas Isaksson. They all go through each of the pickup positions first clean and then distorted. The settings are the same on the signal chain across all the guitars. #1 #2...
Learn MoreI just delivered Per Boysen at the railroad station to go back to Stockholm. The reason for his visit was an interview for FUZZ magazine, the leading guitar magazine in Scandinavia. Per has had #2, #3, and #4 on loan during the week and seemed to have enjoyed the experience a lot. Expect to see the interview in the September issue of the magazine. Per’s personal favorite was #3, both in terms of sound and feel. This pleases me since it is the only one with trapezoidal neck profile (contact Rick Toone for more information about this neck profile) and the majority of players to date have preferred #2. We had a look at my shop, some parts, work in progress and discussed a lot of concepts and ideas – for which we have very similar...
