We spoke to Dion James and Leila Sidi about their philosophy as builders, their backstories, and how they find sharing a space as makers.

This week, we've put together a demo concert by Will McNicol from last December's Evening with Tom Sands at the North American Guitar showroom. Will plays #15, Cedar / Madagascar Rosewood Model L (played first), #2, Wenge / Engelmann Spruce OM, #11, Macassar Ebony / Swiss Spruce Model L. 

Thanks for listening, we hope you enjoy!

We speak to Steve Keys, the man behind 'Rocklite Ebano®' and 'Rocklite Sundari®' - sustainable alternatives to Ebony and Indian Rosewood. Steve answers your questions, tells us about his company, and how Rocklite® came to be.

We visited Alpher Instruments HQ and chatted all things electric guitar (and wine and cheese).

It's a new year, and a new episode of your shortest running but favourite Lutherie podcast on the internet! 

We have more wine and cheese, and we discussed your questions while reflecting over the holidays. Thanks to everyone who took part, and remember to leave us a question for next week - or tell us how we did, what you'd like to see more of etc in the comments.
