In this episode, I learn about the art and craft of custom guitar building from one of India's foremost luthiers. We talk about everything from what goes into building a great guitar - technically, sonically and philosophically - to the rise in popularity of custom guitars in India and abroad.
About Karan Singh: Under the brand name BigFoot guitars, he hand crafts bespoke guitars which are considered among the best around the world, and have been used by musicians like 2-time Grammy winner Amrit Sond, and Bob Weir- founding member of The Grateful Dead. Having apprenticed under world renowned luthier Jason Kostal, this former HR professional now builds top-notch guitars out of locally sourced woods from his workshop in Goa.

2. You've wondered what goes into building quality guitars with great tone
3. You'd like to know what it's like being a luthier building out of India
