About Jerzy

Jerzy started building bass guitars at age of 16 in his origin town of
Wroclaw in Poland. His fascination by music made decide him that he want to
become a bass player. Purchasing a bass was impossible without his father
support.

Jerzy already had experience working on some manual projects as hobbyist
like miniature flying airplanes, he had no idea about theory of bass building
though.

His first bass guitar was build from scratch, using woods and materials
available in that time. The only guide Jerzy had was some bass catalogs and
famous bass players photos and one “do it yourself” book with short chapter on
spanish guitar making.

Jerzy’s first bass was already designed by himself and was invaluable base
for Jerzy to learn playing a bass guitar. That original first Jerzy’s bass was
sold making space for his new self build second electric bass, the step forward
he made respect quality was huge, but still bass building was rather necessity
than passion at that time.

While he was still playing that second bass he was dreaming about
commercial bass.

Finally he bought copy of Fender Precision Bass however he get very
disappointed and returned to bass building with more persistence: this time
Jerzy at age of 18 build series of 10 headless basses designed by himself.

At age of 20 Jerzy decided to move alone into the big unknown world. He
ended living in Barcelona Spain where he established himself and after some
break he returned to bass building professionally.

At present Jerzy Drozd is a worldwide recognized lutiher building his
instruments in his Bass Art Company in Barcelona. Jerzy offers wide range of
bass guitars:

from 4 string basses up to 12 string Extended Range Basses of any kind.

His passion for music reminds the same, although he does not play the bass
professionally anymore, in the past he shared with his band the same stage with
Aerosmith, Alanis Morisette to mention some Big Artists.
