Summary
For episode 102 of the podcast, I talk with Michel Pellerin, an inspiring guitar maker from Québec. Michel shares his journey, from teaching guitarmaking at lutherie schools to his time at the Godin factory, to developing and teaching his own advanced finishing course. We also dive into his current line of guitars — from parlor to harp — and how he continues to evolve his work through collaboration with musicians and colleagues. Michel explains his method of building two nearly identical instruments, changing just one feature between them to push the boundaries of design and sound. Stick around after the main episode for a bonus segment: I catch up with Mario Beauregard at the Sound Messe Guitar Show in Osaka for a quick conversation on what's new.
