I am Juuso Tornberg, graduate of guitar building in Ikaalinen College of Crafts and Design in Finland. Before enrolling in the school, I had built my first steel-string acoustic guitar in a community college’s course of guitar making. At the time, I fell in love with the steel-string acoustic guitar building. I wanted to learn more and decided to pursuit the art of lutherie. I’ve always loved to work with wood and hand tools. At present, after 15 years of office life I feel alive again while building guitars.
My passion is the steel-string acoustic guitar building so I will try to explore it the most. I developed my own model JT-00 which I have build four guitars so far, Nr. 4-7. Scroll down to have a look at some of the guitars I have built before and in school.
I will update my website about ordering and availability later this year. I start by offering two models, small bodied JT-00 and bigger OM-sized model which is under development at the moment. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
JT-00 models number 6 and 7 are for sale at Kitarapaja in Helsinki. Go check them out, it is a nice change to try out some Tornberg guitars.
