Ulf Zackrisson 1951 - 2023 Rest in peace

It is with profound sadness that we share the news of the death of our co-founder, guiding light and dear friend Ulf Zackrisson, who passed away peacefully on Friday, April 14th 2023 after a year-long battle with cancer. He leaves his wife Kristina, three daughters and one grandchild.
Ulf’s contribution to the Swedish guitar community cannot be overstated. As founder, publisher and editor-in-chief of FUZZ magazine, originator and arranger of the annual Gothenburg Guitar Show (FUZZ Guitar Show from 2007), he helped to spread information and knowledge, and facilitated connections between musicians, musical instrument makers and importers, to the benefit of us all.
Ulf was respected and loved by all who knew him for his honesty, integrity, generosity and professionalism. He will be sorely missed.
Ulf was 71 years old.
