The Studio

Borderman started with one guitar.

Option 1: Professional & Story-Driven (Best for a main "About Us" page) Borderman is a one-man creative studio founded by guitar enthusiast and artist Jamie Furber. After years spent on the road as a touring musician, Jamie combined his lifelong artistic passion with technical expertise gained in the commercial print industry. What started as an experiment to see how accurately a complex, contoured design could be printed onto a guitar body turned into a breakthrough. The first attempt aligned perfectly with the instrument's unique curves—and Borderman was born. Today, we bridge the gap between high-end print technology and musical passion, turning guitars into playable works of art.

Option 2: Short & Punchy (Best for your homepage or shop sidebar) Founded by touring musician and artist Jamie Furber, Borderman is a one-man shop dedicated to custom guitar art. By fusing years of musical passion with professional print industry experience, Jamie prints intricate, complex designs that flawlessly follow the contours of a guitar body. Every piece is a proof of concept that started with a wild experiment: pushing the boundaries of print precision on the instruments we love.

Option 3: Modern & Casual (Great for a younger, community-focused brand) Hey, I’m Jamie Furber—the artist, guitarist, and one-man crew behind Borderman. After years of touring in bands and working in the print industry, I wanted to find a way to merge my two biggest passions. One day, I ran an experiment to see if I could print a highly complex, contoured design directly onto a guitar body. It came out looking incredible on the very first try. I was hooked, and I knew I couldn't stop there. Welcome to Borderman, where gear meets art.

Process

How a Borderman is made.

  1. Step 01

    Design

    Every print starts as an original drawing or layout. Working with the shape and aesthetic of the body style. Our printed process allows for highly detailed designs and even photography can be used.

  2. Step 02

    Prep

    Body sanded to 320, sealed, masked, and laid flat for printing.

  3. Step 03

    Print

    Pigment goes on the wood directly. Multiple passes for opacity.

  4. Step 04

    Finish

    Sealed under satin or gloss, wet-sanded, polished, and assembled.
