Juha Ruokangas interview – Builder of the Captain Nemo guitar

Juha Ruokangas was one of the guitar builder I really wanted to meet during the Holy Grail Guitar Show, that's why I was thrilled to do a 45min video interview with him. Juha has established a brand so highly regarded in the guitar world that I had a tons of questions to ask him. Furthermore, he had just finished one week earlier a 3 year long project with the Captain Nemo guitar (see below) so he had a lot to tell.

On top of that Juha is the VP of the European Guitar Builders association so we also talked about how the Holy Grail Guitar Show came to exist.
