About the brand

Started in 2014, built to last.

Nordic Essentials started in 2014. Founder Henrik Andersson began the brand out of a deep passion for playing the guitar, and a hard time finding quality gear that wasn't cheap plastic, or something that would break after a few uses.

He wanted sturdy products that would last a long time, with the quality feel of a premium product, without necessarily the premium price tag. The lightweight capo is made from aircraft-grade aluminum. The deluxe capo has a zinc alloy body. The folding stand is also aircraft-grade aluminum.

The Nordic in the name comes from Henrik's Swedish roots. It does not mean the products are made in Scandinavia.

Nordic Essentials is one of three brands from Nordic Quality Limited, next to Nordic Lifting and Nordic Flash.
