That said, some of my other musical influences would include D. I am influenced by things outside the world of guitars, be it cars, furniture design or Brutalist architecture. The more I build, the greater my admiration of design and designers. Influences within the guitar world would definitely include Florian at Millimetric, a massive innovator and generally lovely guy. Matt Proctor at M-Tone guitars has also been a long time influence as well. One of my closest friends within the business is Jon at Lateral Sound pedals. We live fairly close to each other here in the South West of England, so we actually get to see one another on a fairly regular basis. I love the pedals that Jon makes, and I love his constant need to push himself in developing new sounds and build methods. The voice of reason if you will. There are lots of very lovely and supportive people in this business and I feel lucky to be a part of it, albeit in my tiny niche. J - Your model range currently consists of the DeadBeat and Degenerate, two seemingly similar overall styles, what lead you to those designs, how do you feel they differ and perhaps if you could talk us through your design process too? My design process is rudimentary in the extreme consisting solely of large sheets of paper, drawing curves and a pencil. In some ways putting pencil to paper is the very start of the build process, coming in just before the gluing together of the body blanks.

About this model:. This is where it all started for Odessa. An offset body shape that evokes the golden age of guitar design but with thoroughly modern appointments. The DeadBeat combines no-nonsense aesthetics with precisely planned practicality. Everything feels as it should…from the subtle stomach cut and forearm bevel to the upper fret access and placement of the controls, the DeadBeat is instantly familiar.

The back not so sure? Back in the 80s I had an Odessa acoustic it was bright white with black trim…absolutely beautiful…I believe it was a D17 and it was stolen from my house while I was at school.

A big thanks to Mike for spending the time doing this interview for the series, it's an honour to hear more about his brand and instruments! No two really looking alike be it through finishes or hardware choices. The wood of the inside of the back, as seen through the soundhole, appears to be luan, often sold as "Philippine mahogany. The aesthetic pointers are just awesome to me, a very inspiring instrument to look at, and it hangs in my office as a continued distraction from working! I'd been suffering with tonsillitis for a prolonged period, so collection had to be held back longer than we both hoped for, but on the final dregs of antibiotics I made the fairly short drive down to south Bristol to Mike's lovely home to collect this fantastic looking Deadbeat baritone, despite still feeling a little ropy that gave me enough energy to power through. I do think this guitar was born for P90s for sure, they suit it very well and it begs you to play and enjoy doing so which is the important thing. We could tell for certain if you take a photo of the soundhole from more of an angle, but even in the photo you provided there appears to be a darker-colored layer of wood in there. Remember Me? As a fan of the Montana band Silkworm back in the s and the subsequent career of one of their three vocalists, Joel RL Phelps, I was thrilled when he and I eventually made contact back in the early 00s. Speaking of the headstock end of the guitar, that little logo on the back is something my son loves. That said, some of my other musical influences would include D.
