Meet the Master – Gibson Custom’s in-house Master Artisan Rick “Rickie” Hinrichsen started his career at Gibson 12 years ago, first as a binder, then in whitewood and setup in the Nashville craftory. One day, an opportunity presented itself to hand-carve a paisley design on a guitar, and Rickie knew he was up to the challenge. Though having no formal experience in hand carving wood but deep experience in hand drawing and visual arts, he took the guitar home, bought three chisels, and got to work. He soon discovered that if he could draw it, he could carve it. After six months of meticulous work, Rickie completed his first piece.
Recognizing he possessed a unique talent, he was offered a position as the Gibson Custom Shop’s in-house Master Artisan. As Rickie says, “They just let me run wild, and the ideas are still coming.”
Every one of Rickie’s designs is unique and one of a kind. Each design is hand-drawn, then skillfully hand-carved using a Gibson Custom guitar or a MESA/Boogie amplifier as the artist’s canvas.
Many of the inlays are also hand-created by Rickie, along with other details such as wood-burning, hand-etched truss rod covers, and hand-engraved pickup covers. Each is a fully playable musical instrument with the exceptional sound quality and playability that are the hallmarks of Gibson Custom guitars and MESA/Boogie amplifiers.
What is the Gibson Master Artisan Collection?
In short, these guitars are works of art that are meant to be played.
Located within the Gibson Custom Shop in Nashville, TN, Gibson partners with groundbreaking artisans to create these bespoke instruments — custom-designed and built to be fully functional, authentically Gibson, and utterly one of a kind.
Join host Dinesh Lekhraj as he chats with Master Artisan Rickie Hinrichsen to walk us through some of his most prized and unique Master Artisan Gibson guitars. Each design is hand-drawn and skillfully hand-carved by Rickie using Custom Shop guitars and even a MESA/Boogie amplifier.
