🎸 The Guitar Hang Podcast: Season 10 • Episode 3
Guest: Michael Nielsen

Season 10 continues with a thoughtful and inspiring conversation featuring guitarist, composer, and creator Michael Nielsen.

In this episode, Jon sits down with Michael to explore the evolving life of a modern guitarist — from composing and producing original music to building sounds, profiles, and creative tools used by players around the world. Michael shares insight into his musical journey, his approach to tone and feel, and how curiosity and consistency have guided his work as both an artist and educator.

They also dive into creativity beyond the guitar — writing music for media, developing signature sounds, and staying inspired while navigating today’s ever-changing musical landscape. This is an honest, grounded conversation about growth, craft, and staying connected to the joy of making music.

A relaxed, musical hang filled with perspective, inspiration, and real-world experience.
