Prevost Pipes
Pete Prevost lives in Nashville, Tennessee, and makes pipes when he is not traveling with his band. Learning how to make pipes under Jody Davis (J. Davis) and Todd Johnson, Pete has honed his skills in a very short time. While he doesn't make very many pipes annually due to his show schedule, one could argue that a smaller quantity of excellent briars is much better than a large number of average pieces. After meeting Pete when his band was playing in South Carolina, and again at the Chicago pipe show in 2012, we're thrilled to be able to represent this budding talent. His pipes are all handmade and have handcut stems from vulcanite rod with Delrin tenons. Courtesy, Smokingpipes.com
From the Prevost Pipes Website: I bought my first pipe when I was eighteen years old. A three dollar corncob from a drugstore in my hometown of Bakersfield, CA. I’ve always had a love for things that were made by hand, so it was only natural that my enjoyment of pipe smoking would collide with pipe making.
I bought a pipe kit and spent the next two days hacking away at my first block of briar. The end result was the first Prevost pipe; a smooth billiard nose warmer that I scratched “P1″ into the bottom with a pocket knife. I was hooked.
Since moving to Nashville, I have been blessed with a beautiful family, a great job in music, and an incredible opportunity to learn from some of the greatest pipe makers in the world.
All of my pipes are made from the finest raw materials and no two pieces are identical. Please take a look at my available pipes or contact me to commission a special pipe of your own.
