My guest this week is Fretboard Journal's Jason Verlinde.

Jason shares the story of how Fretboard Journal started, back in 2005, and how it's grown from a print magazine to include a series of great podcasts and The Fretboard Summit events.

We also chat about the current state of the acoustic instrument market and how the vintage market has changed over the past two decades, plus what people can expect from this year's Fretboard Summit, which kicks off in Chicago in just two days.

Visit fretboardjournal.com for more info on the Fretboard Journal magazine and podcasts and fretboardsummit.org for info on the Fretboard Summit.

Happy picking!
Matt
