Our Team

Nicolai Schneekloth

CEO and Founder of Vintage & Rare

For as long as I can remember, I have been deeply passionate about creating music & playing fine instruments that can make it all happen. Throughout the years, I have worked with a lot of great producers, and have played with a lot of great musicians and bands ‐ such as Die Dumme Dänen (Sony/BMG), Den Sorte Boks (Sony/BMG), Camden (Sfære Records/ RMV Music).

I have always been obsessed with instruments that enable the finest expression of sound, from their initial idea through to their creation. While I toured the world looking for the finest instruments I could find, I realized I really would have liked to have had the information and knowledge to find and select instruments by using a single internet resource. That is Vintageandrare.com. I hope you will join me and make it happen.
