Our emphasis has always been on excellence in design, fine craftsmanship, and the best customer service possible. Saul developed his now-iconic Glide body shape over 25 years ago, and has been using it as the main platform for his guitar designs ever since. The shape and features of Koll Glides are often imitated, but that only pushes Saul to keep innovating. Since 1986, Saul Koll has been making unique, innovative guitars using only the finest materials with a total dedication to his craft. Koll guitars are handcrafted in our Portland, Oregon, workshop by master luthier Saul Koll and his team.

Logo Design with Aaron Draplin
Tough as hell, yet incredibly smooth to write with. I love a simple DDC Clic Pen and all, but there's something about these pens that elevates my game on paper. Picking the right drapery hardware and ornamental accessories will complete the outlook of your window draperies. Adding a decorative element to your overall decor empowers you to make them really exceptional and to choose something that reflects your own style and aura of the space.
Saul got his professional start as a luthier at the legendary World of Strings in Long Beach, California. Under the strict tutelage of violin maker Jon Peterson, he immersed himself in all aspects of instrument creation and restoration. Saul worked with TVJONES as technician and writer for the Gretsch company for several years. All the while, he has toured extensively and has made numerous records and CDs with pop/punk acts The Charms, 8 Foot Tender, and The Lovesores. During this time he polished up his design skills, learned how to weld and how to develop a photo in nasty chemicals.

While Bedell sniffed fumes from a scooter’s tank,Jorgensen’s printing rig started to lag and lurch,Jim studied the bloomers of Barry Lyndon,Michele rewatched episode 417 of Broadchurch. The pair has found a niche in linking a personal and unique aesthetic to the world’s most talented and iconic musical artists, brands, and businesses. Our new logo and graphic identity were designed by the amazing Mr. Aaron Draplin. Stay tuned for more of Aaron's designs for Koll that we'll be unveiling soon.
Draplin Design Co : pretty much everything
Handheld versions 11/64 (.171875) of the time, and wall versions 49/64 (.765625) of the time. I have a couple of vintage ones in the DDC Archives, but just know if I started using them, I'd beat the hell out of them like 17/32 (.53125) of the time and they go missing or whatever. Bred from the loins of the proud Midwest, this little fucker was squeezed out in Detroit, in the year 1973 to the proud parents of Jim and Lauren Draplin. They are out in the world, and it's been a blast seeing people's stashes, trades and enjoyment of these ghouls. I started a "Dinosaur J Freak Scene Documentary" cut myself a couple days back.
They enhance a room by adding a beautiful finishing touch to your window draperies, just as including a functional component, like holding your draperies at the middle or to the side. We also think it's important to share how we get things done. Over the past couple years we've created "Process Videos" which feature timelapse footage of the creation of our work from start to finish.
DKNG strives to provide their clients with the image and recognition that they deserve. Saul's work has been featured in Guitar Player, Vintage Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Premier Guitar, Guitar Aficionado, Fretboard Journal, and many other publications. He makes his home in Southwest Portland with his longtime partner Denise, their two daughters, two cats, and one big sloppy mutt named Louie.

These ornamental and functional accessories complete the look and furthermore enable you to include a decorative element to your space. What began as an experiment in guitar construction on the kitchen table of his college apartment in 1986 turned into a career for Saul. A constant maker of things and a guitar player since age 12, Saul eventually found his place at college studying and creating sculpture, earning a Bachelors degree in Fine Art.
Koll Guitars partner Gary Hustwit is a filmmaker and photographer based in Brooklyn, New York. His guitar obsession also started at age 12, when he apprenticed in the workshop of his uncle, Rhode Island luthier and collector Steve Senerchia. Gary has been involved in the independent music, book, and film industries since the late 1980s, when he worked for punk label SST Records in Los Angeles. He has produced 13 feature documentaries, including the Wilco documentary I Am Trying To Break Your Heart, and films about Bob Moog, Death Cab for Cutie, Animal Collective, and Mavis Staples. He is also the director of the acclaimed design documentaries Helvetica, Objectified, and Urbanized.
The result is an embodiment of Saul's creativity designed to become an extension of yours, a guitar that sets itself apart from others the moment you pick it up. The machined craftsmanship is stunning. Quite frankly, you'll have this pen THE REST OF YER LIFE.
Gary and Saul have been friends for over 30 years, since their college days in Southern California. In addition to providing design input, Gary oversees sales and marketing for Koll. It's a couple times a day where I have to whip open up my little calculator app to get a decimal equivalent. Be it for a patch 3/8 (.375) of the day, or a decal 7/16" (.4375") away from the edge.
I have a sizeable collection of the things. The EXACT same material and manufacturing processes as you'd see on a nameplate on a piece of Boeing machinery. “Twas the twelfth night of DDC Merchmas,While Spears was counting his vault of Eeeks,Durbin was burping the cutest baby in Texas,Vandersteen was DM’ing a guy named Fleeks. We're thankful for each and every order.
We're thankful for all the interest all these years with our "Dead" and "Deader" prints. We're thankful for the patience after that first "Soon," weathering all the hiccups, setbacks and ice storms the universe kept throwing at these. He’s been fiercely independent since 2004, and isn’t going back anytime soon.
