Fretboard Summit 2024 feat. Jewitt Guitars, Blind Guitars, Dark Forest Cypress & Richard Hoover

Join me on Patreon!   / lindsaystraw   The Fretboard Summit in Chicago was a huge whirlwind of reconnections and overdue IRL meetings! And of course: the many, many stunning guitars. As you may know, I'm a player of both ‪@JewittGuitars‬ and ‪@blindguitars‬, and with both of them in one place, I had to get some interviews in. Jeff showed off his feast of Redwood and Cypress, from rich baritone to 00. Watch for some bonus chats and demos from ‪@MattThomasmusic‬, ‪@tacguitar‬, ‪@TomSandsGuitars‬, ‪@SantaCruzGuitarCo‬, and ‪@EddiesGuitars‬. Full chat with Richard Hoover:    • Richard Hoover Interview - Fretboard Summi...   Listen to the Jewitt 00 Cypress:    • The Acoustic Guitar Showcase with Matt Chu...   Virgile Pilon of Blind Guitars brought two stunning Ancient Cypress guitars, including his 100th, an incredible Ditson-inspired model. So great to get the scoop on design changes he's made over the years. ‪@aaronlucasguitars‬ supplied the Ancient Cypress both Virgile and Jeff used, and is a builder himself. Needless to say, I had to get the back story on this beautiful, intriguing wood, too.
