Behind Guitar Of The Day: Friday May 3: Gibson J35

Behind Guitar Of The Day: Friday May 3: 1930's Gibson J35. Martin called them Dreadnaughts, Gibson called them Jumbos, and back in the 1930's Gibson's J35 got it's name because it was a 'Jumbo' and retailed for $35. The J35 shaped the future of big-bodied acoustic guitars and defined the sound of American folk, country and acoustic Blues music for decades to come. It's Flat Top Friday and Michael Lemmo has a beautiful 1930's Gibson J35 to show us.

An Interview with Matt Lucas from Matt's Guitar Shop in Paris

I recorded this interview with Matt Lucas from Matt's Guitar Shop in Paris a while ago when he was here in Los Angeles on a buying trip. Since then, Matt has opened the store and sold many amazing vintage guitars, some owned and played by some of the most iconic guitar players of all time. We discuss one amazing piece of history he acquired recently, Django Reinhart's first guitar. This guitar pre-dates and survived the caravan fire that caused the injuries to Django's left hand and is believed to be the guitar on which he wrote 'Nuages'. Check out Matt's Guitar Shop website and Instagram, it's a very unique store.
