A Podcast with Adam Harrison and Darren McDonald

Join me, Adam Harrison and Darren McDonald as we talk about recent activity in the cigar box guitar world. The conversation ranges from appreciating supportive community members, acknowledging the negative aspect of group dynamics, to the importance of maintaining a positive and respectful atmosphere in every community, especially in artistic domains such as cigar box guitar building.

We not only discusses community dynamics but also acknowledge the incredible work of guitar creators who’ve astounded us with their ingenious designs and creativity. With a special mention of Junksville Guitars for their brilliant and funky creations and Richard Pedretti-Allen's inventive use of cigar boxes to make charming tambourines. Towards the end, we share the nuances and challenges faced while drilling steel and constructing shovel guitars.

The dialogue embraces several anecdotes from teaching music in schools to sharing personal experiences of crafting unique guitars, shedding light on the host's unique approach to customizing and the hurdles faced during the process. Engage yourself in this fascinating journey of imparting music knowledge to young learners, and enjoy a recollection of joining a band performing classic tracks.

This episode not only delves into music creation but also touches upon other areas such as the art of drumming, exchanging instruments with friends and explores different musical genres. 

So tune in to enrich your understanding of music, guitar building, and community dynamics. The episode ends with an open invitation to all listeners to share their stories and experiences in the future episodes, taking a step further in creating engaging musical content. 

And remember, as Darren said, "Don't bite your friends."
