Julian's New Guitar

Perfect timing for a NYC vacation

Ever wondered what one of the world’s greatest guitarists plays when he gets a new guitar? I happened to be in New York City with my family on June 20, 2023. While there, I learned that Mark Stutman of Canada’s Folkway Music was also in-town and that, among other things, he was delivering a 1932 Gibson L-0 to its new owner, Julian Lage.

After a flurry of texts, we all decided to meet at my hotel lobby.

The guitar case was opened and this is where Julian goes. A bit different from my standard cowboy chord operating procedure.

Enjoy your new guitar, Julian!
