Pachyderm Studios

The studio was founded in 1988 by Jim Nickel, Mark Walk and Eric S. Anderson, with acoustic design by Bret Theney of Westlake Audio.

The studio went into a decline in the mid-2000s, after original co-owner Jim Nickel sold the property.

[1] It went into a state of disrepair for many years, though bands occasionally still recorded there.

[2] It was purchased by engineer John Kuker in 2011 out of foreclosure and remodeled over the next three years.

The studio is managed by longtime Kuker employee Nick Tveitbakk and clients are still able to record with the wide variety of musical equipment and guitars that Kuker collected.
