Summary
Acclaimed vintage guitar repairperson Mark Stutman (Folkway Music) joins the Fretboard Journal Podcast once again. We talk about his early training as a luthier, running Folkway Music, and his approach to repairing vintage acoustics that may have left the factory with a quirk or two. We also talk about Mark's love for film and digital photography and so much more. Mark is a frequent guest on our podcast, a speaker at our annual Fretboard Summit and even contributed the cover photo that graces our 58th issue!
