Hellzero Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) JP Basses is Jean-Philippe Ferreira brand and he's French, not Italian. Skjold didn't build basses for him, but bought all the rights when Jean-Philippe Ferreira stopped hand crafting them. Pete Skjold is now the only person in the world allowed to build them under his brand and in the Denoncourt Series. JP Basses are also amongst @skelf favourites. This very model is a first generation Denoncourt JP Basses Zia 5. 😉 Here is the link to most of Jean-Philippe Ferreira production : http://www.jpferreira.fr/pics/JPBasses Museum/ Edited November 30, 2021 by Hellzero Wording 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
