Really well done … Wonderfuly intimate, informative on many levels.Hands down the most honest program you’ve done.

The collaberation projects define the beauty of both the surfing and guitar worlds.

I’ve had great interaction with Brenda……Tell her Zorro said Hey.

Congrats to all concerned.

I really don’t need another capo…..But….I do need a Shubb/SCGC capo LOL

I just listened to this podcast.  It’s always great to hear what Richard H. has to say.  Agree that it was very informative. It surprised me when he said the guitar industry is currently experiencing a downturn.  Let’s hope their fortunes  get better in the new year.

the downturn… he told me that during covid, a number of stores were selling off the walls (TME to my knowledge, for one), and people had nothing to do at home but buy stuff online.  and the builders (the big ones) ramped up, and the dealers had to increase their commitments. finally, as with every boom, in Mark Knopfler’s words in “Janine,””there’s always a bust.” it’ll turn around, but for a while, saturation.
