🎸 New Interview Drop!

I connected with Brooklyn guitarist/composer Chris Parker — a player who bounces effortlessly between singer/songwriter gigs, tropical lounge-jazz, freak-funk, and fully improvised music.

We dug into how he became such a versatile sideman, his slide-guitar approach, and the story behind his band Guru Complex.

If you’re into creative guitar voices, you’ll love this one.

In this week's newsletter (link in comments), we showcased the Powers Electric A-Type guitar (arguably the most innovative new guitar release in recent years).

🎸 Powers Electric Guitars — founded in 2023 by Andy Powers of Taylor Guitars — is reimagining the electric guitar with California style and soul 🌴

Their debut model, the A-Type, features a unique trussed hollow-body design that’s lightweight, resonant, and built entirely in-house — from custom pickups to the CamTail vibrato and surfboard-resin k***s.

Handcrafted in small batches in California, Powers Electric blends modern engineering, artistry, and a deep sense of individuality.
