Fixing Dave Gilmour's Guitar, Man vs Plek, & Making Pickups: Matt from Monty's Guitars, ep 14

Guitar Builders Collective Chat

We talked about so much today. From working on famous people's guitars, learning on the job in a big guitar shop, to the early stages of running his own business on his kitchen table - Matt has loads of experience that we're so glad he shared with us. Highlights include who could do a fret job fastest, man or (plek) machine, working as a touring tech, and discussing various pickup voicings.
