Mathias Jakob
Guitar maker and carpenter
Burgdorf

Furniture design, guitars, and craftsmanship: these are Mathias Jakob's greatest passions. For forty years, he has been transforming local woods into unique furniture and professional concert guitars. In the past, he also trained young cabinetmakers. For fifteen years, he has been working alone again. He puts his heart and soul into crafting his instruments, designing new chairs, and building custom-made solid furniture. Quality, form, and function: a proven trio!

Mathias Jakob discovered his passion for craftsmanship after training as a guitar teacher. He made his first guitar and was immediately fascinated by woodworking. He pursues his second passion, music and the guitar, with his quartet Kelim, for which he also composes.
