My First Guitar | The Acoustic Guitar Podcast

Listen to the first-ever episode of The Acoustic Guitar Podcast, a new monthly show from your friends at Acoustic Guitar magazine.

In our first episode, we share stories of first guitars. Tune in for renowned musicians Eric Bibb, Bruce Cockburn, Courtney Hartman, Richard Thompson, Badi Assad, Sharon Isbin, and Tommy Emmanuel; heartwarming, inspiring, and surprising tales from the community; plus previously unheard recordings of Doc Watson and Michael Hedges. Find out who volunteered to study music out of a sense of family duty, who had his first guitar smashed, and who’s still playing theirs today.

We’ll be releasing a new podcast episode on the last Wednesday of every month from here on out. You’ll be able to stream episodes directly on our site by going to AcousticGuitar.com/podcast. Or, find us on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, or whichever app you use to get your podcasts (be sure to subscribe! And, if you’d be so kind, leave a rating and review to help other people find the show.)
