Sponsored Post: Hold Fast with Sailor Jerry

The following post is from our advertiser, Sailor Jerry.

You see, there aren't many men like Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins around anymore. The father of old-school tattooing, Sailor Jerry was a true classic in every sense of the word. A tough old sea dog with a shrewd intellect, Jerry stood up for himself and stood by his work earning him a legacy that is still felt today. That's why we've rounded up stories of a few people who remind us of the originality, dedication, and inspiring passion for the work they do. Oliver Ackermann and James Hammarhead are two such men.

Oliver Ackermann makes "the craziest sounds in the world by building effects pedals and smashing guitars." His company, Death By Audio, takes a DIY approach to exploring the full potential of their craft every day - on their own terms; just like Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins did.

James Hammarhead is a man of many interests and many talents. Trained as a neuropsychologist but with a real passion for classic bikes he combines both sides of his brain when building his custom made Hammarhead Bikes. Like Norman Collins, Hammarhead isn't satisfied with good enough - his bikes are well designed and built with keen eye for detail.
