Anyone come across Vuorensaku Guitars?
They look very cool to me. Not heard very much about them

My 2018 has been very busy and already I had shows in Helsinki, Berlin, Gothenburg, Mannheim and Burgdorf (CH).
Another problem is that I don't have barely any guitars in stock at the moment, so there's not so much to show
I must prepare my self better next year!!
Any good suggestions for best guitar shows in UK?
Mostly I can even name the villages where the logs come from.
Specially Finnish and Karelian Pine are kind of a trademarks for my collection. Must say that’s my favorite tonewood. It has straight grains, reasonable weight, awesome looks with many variation (wide grain, tight grain, knots, clean..etc.)
Guess you already knew that the white prototype of Telecaster was pine too
Karelian Pine is also called as a deadwood pine.
that means that the tree has died still standing up for +200 years. So those are over 500y old trees!! Those logs has super tight grains like violin tops. One company build luxory houses from those logs and I get the leftovers
Here’s few example of Deadwood Pine.

And can I say I'm a huge fan of Karelian Pine myself :-)

I'd love to see a youTube demo by a UK player well known for using Teles - like Danish Pete for example
And thanks for warm welcome @TheGuitarWeasel From my end You are very welcome to visit my workshop in Jyväskylä next time you come to Finland
@drpbier I'd love to see that too!! Pete and Anderton's are very well know here in Finland too. If you have any access or contacts to those guys please make the move. I'm totally open for ideas.
Ps: There's actually one of my T.Family guitars in London. The owner is Timo Kaltio. Finnish origin guitar player for Peckham Cowboys and Anita Chellamah and many more. He's a living legend and the general ambassador for me in UK.
