He is about to end up run over, his mother saves him
Recycle old boards from skateboard, broken or by now very worn, to create new ones guitars. Here is the idea of Nick Pourfard, who starting from his love for music and skateboarding founded the project Prisma Guitars.
Nick is 23 years old and he learned to work wood on his own to make musical instruments such as guitars. He lives in San Francisco and studies industrial design. All the guitars he makes are built with wood taken from old salvaged skateboards.
The guitars of the Prisma Guitars project are original pieces, completely assembled by hand and with unique colors for each instrument. Some famous musicians have started to show their interest in these truly original guitars. A great satisfaction for Nick, who built his first guitar when he was only 18 years old.
Given the success of the project, Nick decided to include one shop online on its website, where you can buy hand-made guitars from used skateboards.
Since these are unique pieces in the world, created in a completely handcrafted way, the prices correspond precisely to these characteristics and take into account the fact that the guitars are made to measure and are customizable.
Have you ever thought that i Could old skateboards turn into musical instruments? For more information, please visit the Prisma Guitars website.
