EP.8 - Andy Manson

Podcast number eight features English guitar making legend Andy Manson.

Recorded remotely in February 2021, across the 870 miles from Andy's workshop in Mortágua, Portugal to the Atkin workshop in Canterbury, Kent, as the crow flies (if crows were migratory). Andy and I talk about how he got started making guitars, taking photographs and the transformative experience of building his incredible Mermaid Guitar.

Huge thanks to the wonderful Jim Moray for letting us use his tune 'Lord Douglas' at the end of the podcast, you can listen to it along with some other carefully selected relevant tunes on my Podcast Playlist.
