In an historic podcast episode we present "The Dan Erlewine Recordings". Chayton Alo, founder of The Luthier Bench, conducts a 132-minute sweeping interview of a legend in the lutherie industry - Dan Erlewine. Recorded just a few months before Dan's 80th birthday in summer 2024, this podcast is an incredible journey into the life of a man who has defined lutherie education for over half a century. We walk with Dan from his childhood years and learning from his woodworking father through his first record player, first guitar bought, first repair job, and first experience creating video content for luthiers. But, Dan Erlewine is much more than a master repairman and educator par excellence. Did you know that Dan's band opened up for The Cream at The Filmore and The Grateful Dead. And, if that isn't enough, Dan has built a series of historic guitars first for Albert King and then for Jerry Garcia. The story of Dan's life is the story of music, it is the story of education, and it is the story of guitar building. But mostly, the life story of Dan is an unforgettable journey through time, through music, and of course, through the evolution of the guitar industry.

004 - Michihiro Matsuda of Matsuda Guitars
Michihiro Matsuda is perhaps the most revolutionary guitar builder on the planet. The Matsuda workshop is synonymous with radical designs executed with precise construction. Michihiro (known as Michi) was born & raised on the island of Japan. A love for guitar playing and the desire to build inspired Michi to immigrate to America at the age of 29 and in 1997, with almost no English, he enrolled in Roberto-Venn School of Lutherie in Phoenix. Shortly after graduation, Michi had the great fortune of becoming an apprentice of the legendary Luthier Ervin Somogyi for over 3 years. And, he was also able to work with historic guitar repairman Frank Ford at Gryphon Strings. Eventually, Michihiro opened up his own workshop and today he is located in Redwood City, California fabricating about 6 to 7 guitars annually mostly using hand tools. But Michi is more than just a guitar builder, he is a creative artist with a sense for the life-force in wood and an intuition for building that is historic. He is a deeply private and soft-spoken man but today we are going to look deeper into the creative genius of Matsuda Guitars.
