I recently had an opportunity to sit down with Southern Living Magazine and talk about making a living as a Musician and Luthier in my amazing community. I figured some of you might be interested in seeing how the video came out. Once again, it's because of the people on this forum that I have been able to have the courage to pursue a life as a luthier.
