Where do you place the start point of PJD Guitars as a company? “Yes, we only used swamp ash back then, so the original Carey Standard you have is definitely swamp ash. Then we switched to American white ash, just because swamp ash became incredibly expensive for a while – it still is and it’s not particularly easy to get in any quantity. When we needed to make quite a few, we realised it was totally unrealistic to use swamp ash. We’ve now got real control of how our guitars sound, too, and now that we’ve done it, it makes perfect sense.”One thing you’ve replicated pretty much is that original PJD neck profile.
