S3E7 - Relentless Pursuit of Curiosity with Meredith Coloma of Coloma Guitars
Meredith Coloma is a luthier, entrepreneur, singer/songwriter/musician with enough touring, writing, and experience bonafides on her resume to be extremely intimidating - but complements that with a friendliness and sense of building community that made her an absolute joy to talk to. In this episode we talk about her path to becoming a luthier and starting Coloma Guitars, her current struggles to manage the success as a one-woman shop, and her plans to grow beyond that.

S2E26 - Adam Miller
With a unique approach to the guitar, Adam Miller's music is groovy and approachable, whilst having a melodic sophistication that only comes from years of cross genre hopping. His inclusion of complex rhythms and dissonant haunting phrases, combined with breathtaking riffs and melodies are his signature. His jazz influenced style with finger-picking mastery creates a improvisation filled live performance that is beautifully unpredictable. This has seen him share stages with Les Paul, Tommy Emmanuel, Matt Schofield, Russell Morris, Charlie Hunter, Adam Levy, Ariel Posen, Tony McManus, Ben Gillies (Silverchair), and more!I hope you all enjoy this episode as much as I did!

S2E24 - Tyler from Alder Audio
Tyler is a guitarist, tinkerer, and home recording enthusiast who decided he wanted to try his hand at building microphones. His story is a common one amongst many makers that I've interviewed on the podcast - he saw a need in his own musical life and decided to build it instead of buying it and in the process created a wonderful microphone that he now offers to the rest of the gear world. He is dedicated to making quality, top-tier, pro microphones at an affordable price that musicians can afford and access. We had a great time in this conversation and I hope you enjoy it!  Find Tyler and Alder Audio on:Internet: https://www.alderaudio.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alderaudio/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9mW-o2JQ5emK0CljcJcoIASupport the show at: https://www.patreon.com/40wattpodcast/​Find guitar lessons on TrueFire (remember to use code 40WATT): https://bit.ly/3t0v1ZdFind all of the podcast links at:https://www.linktr.ee/40wattpodcasthttps://www.40wattpodcast.com/40 Watt Merchandise: https://40-watt-merch.creator-spring.com/Reverb Affiliate link: https://reverb.grsm.io/phillipcarter5480StringJoy Affiliate link: https://stringjoy.com/partner/fortywatt/Amazon Affiliate link: https://www.amazon.com/40wattSubscribe to the channel and give a like – also find us in audio format wherever you listen to podcasts and leave us a review and share us with your friends.Between the NotesA podcast dedicated to celebrating the magic of music, one week at a time.Listen on: Apple Podcasts   SpotifySupport the show

Jeremy Sheppard has built a reputation as being an expert in the acoustic guitar world - not just in buying and selling but his knowledge of vintage Martins and Gibsons and their contemporary boutique builders is unparalleled. I've been lucky to have him on the podcast a few times now and each time is an absolute treat. I'm thankful to call him a friend and I'm sure you're going to enjoy this episode with him as we talk about wild road stories, learning to build guitars, and the perils of content creation!Find Jeremy Sheppard on:Internet: https://www.jeremytheguitarhunter.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeremytheguitarhunter/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCx2eeVX04jN3Ki1u74ehLIwSupport the show at: https://www.patreon.com/40wattpodcast/​Find guitar lessons on TrueFire (remember to use code 40WATT): https://bit.ly/3t0v1ZdFind all of the podcast links at:https://www.linktr.ee/40wattpodcasthttps://www.40wattpodcast.com/40 Watt Merchandise: https://40-watt-merch.creator-spring.com/Reverb Affiliate link: https://reverb.grsm.io/phillipcarter5480StringJoy Affiliate link: https://stringjoy.com/partner/fortywatt/Amazon Affiliate link: https://www.amazon.com/40wattSubscribe to the channel and give a like – also find us in audio format wherever you listen to podcasts and leave us a review and share us with your friends.Between the NotesA podcast dedicated to celebrating the magic of music, one week at a time.Listen on: Apple Podcasts   SpotifySupport the show

S2E21 - Gecko Pedals
Gecko Pedals is an example of what happens when a dare between bandmates ruminates for 15 years and then is finally brought to fruition. Riley at Gecko Pedals has designed and released one of the most ambitious first pedals I've ever seen and it's incredible. On this episode I talk to Riley and Pete about the beauty of tape delays, the marvel of the echoplex, and why the Geckoplex EP-5 is such a wonderfully perfect pedal. We also hear more about Riley's story, how he got into making pedals, and how it was Pete's love for an Echoplex EP-4 that spurred the creation of Gecko Pedals.Find Riley and Gecko Pedals on:Internet: https://www.geckopedals.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/geckopedals/Support the show at: https://www.patreon.com/40wattpodcast/​Find guitar lessons on TrueFire (remember to use code 40WATT): https://bit.ly/3t0v1ZdFind all of the podcast links at:https://www.linktr.ee/40wattpodcasthttps://www.40wattpodcast.com/40 Watt Merchandise: https://40-watt-merch.creator-spring.com/Reverb Affiliate link: https://reverb.grsm.io/phillipcarter5480StringJoy Affiliate link: https://stringjoy.com/partner/fortywatt/Amazon Affiliate link: https://www.amazon.com/40wattSubscribe to the channel and give a like – also find us in audio format wherever you listen to podcasts and leave us a review and share us with your friends.Between the NotesA podcast dedicated to celebrating the magic of music, one week at a time.Listen on: Apple Podcasts   SpotifySupport the show

S2E17 - Jesse Honig of 29 Pedals & Believable Audio
Jesse Honig is obsessive - and I mean this in the most amazing way possible. He has a singular focus for audio integrity and authenticity. He's worked in some incredible studios, on the road for some incredible artists, and that's because he knows audio. This obsession with tone has lead him to create 29 Pedals, a branch of his bigger audio enterprise - Believable Audio. Jesse introduced the EUNA and the OAMP to the pedal community - an auspicious start to have a pedal company with your first pedals being an input and an output buffer! He's made a name for himself in the quality of his pedals and artists are taking notice with more and more of his buffers showing up on pedalboards of some of the best players in the world. I really enjoyed this conversation - Jesse is the best kind of podcast guest. He's gregarious and full of wonderful stories to tell. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it!
