Adam Perlmutter Named Editor of Acoustic Guitar
Adam Perlmutter, long-time contributor to Acoustic Guitar magazine, has been named Editor, succeeding the magazine’s founder, David Lusterman, effective immediately.
Adam has been a regular contributor to Acoustic Guitar since 2008 and became the magazine’s full-time Music Editor in 2014; he has written more than 260 articles, reviews, and song introductions as well as engraving and/or transcribing the music for a comparable number of lessons and compositions.

Of equal or greater importance, Adam has championed emerging artists, luthiers, and manufacturers as astutely and informatively as he has tracked the music and careers of established performers and instrument builders, bringing depth and breadth to Acoustic Guitar’s regular coverage both in print and online.
David Lusterman returns to his previous role as Editorial Director and Publisher.
Here’s a great example of Adam Perlmutter’s recent work, a video lesson with Molly Tuttle.





Hello David,
I have worked with Blair Jackson in the past several times.
I was the Duo partner to the late Carlos Barbosa-Lima for 21 years and have a Latin Grammy Nomination.
I am now recording my next CD, “Blurred Lines, Larry Del Casale and friends” which features a commissioned work from me by Leo Brouwer for guitar and string quartet, “ContraDanza Cubana”, a quintet. The world premiere video will be released in May 2025 of the quintet live. The CD will also be a tribute CD to the late Barbosa-Lima and will feature some of his greatest duo arrangements and ensemble arrangements as well as 3 selections from the Bolling Suite; featuring the legendary Duduka da Fonseca, Helio Alves and Gili Lopez. Also featured is guitarist Joao Luis.
I was hoping we could do an interview or blurb. The entire project is sponsored by Savarez Strings.
I’m hoping we can communicate asap.
Cordially
Larry Del Casale. http://www.delcasalemusic.com
