About
My name is Carl and I’m from Sweden.
I was born into a family where music plays a big role in the everyday living.
During my childhood years I was always fascinated about how things worked and I used to dismantle my toys out of curiosity.
At the age of twelve I first came in contact with the guitar and I fell in love with the instrument.
In highschool I studied music for 3 years where the guitar was my main instrument, along with piano, choir and the numerous rock bands in my spare time. I also studied sound engineering and acoustics.
After highschool I spent three years at the Academy of musical instruments learning how to build various types of guitars.
From classical, steel string acoustic, arch top and electric guitars.
Although I enjoyed building every type of guitar I made a special connection to the steel string acoustic guitar. During the third year of my education I received a journeyman’s certificate as a luthier and a medal for my work.
Since then I’ve been building guitars in my workshop in Stockholm and been fortunate to spend a lot of time in one of the citys vintage instrument stores repairing and restoring stringed instruments which have given me a deep understanding in the construction of the guitar.
In 2021 the swedish craft council awarded me with a certificate as master in the craft of guitar making.
My current workshop and home is located in Laholm, a beautiful small town near the sea on the southern west coast of Sweden.
