This is Nick Pourfard. He is a luthier…or someone who makes stringed instruments, in this case, guitars. Out of old skateboard decks. Nick is a self-taught woodworker and industrial design student based out of San Francisco, CA. All guitars are built using the wood from broken and used skateboards. Prisma Guitars are all 100% handmade and the colors are completely one-of-a-kind for every build. Check the video for the complete process. That video doesn’t do justice to the time-intensive attention to detail through which these guitars are subjected. Check out how much effort goes into a single knob on the guitar… I didn’t have any skateboards lying around… so I stole my neighbors surfboard, but then my guitar came out all fucked up silly.
