Episode Details

On this episode of The Acoustic Shoppe Knows People, the Chapmans are thrilled to sit down with Jason Verlinde, the author, creator, and driving force behind The Fretboard Journal. Jason has spent years documenting the incredible art of lutherie, shedding light on both legendary builders and up-and-coming guitar makers through world-class storytelling and photography. With The Acoustic Shoppe crew packing our bags to attend the highly anticipated Fretboard Summit in just a couple of weeks, there was no better time to bring Jason on the show! We discuss the origins of the magazine, the evolution of the boutique acoustic guitar market, and give you a sneak peek into what we are most excited to see (and play!) at this year's Summit.
