“Rippikoulu” (guitar) is a death/doom unit founded in 1990. Being the first Finnish-sung death metal act the release of “Musta Seremonia” in 1993 (re-released 2010) has slowly gathered the band cult following. Since reactivation and release of “Ulvaja” EP in 2014 the band has toured Europe and United States and is planning to return to it as soon as the situation allows.

I was searching for a perfect guitar for years until Solar Guitars came along. Awesome shapes combined with perfect features and playability. They have since been my main gig and recording tools!
