This series is a treasure trove, Ben! I've learned so much listening to these. Thanks so much for posting! I had a '76 Gibson and I can certainly attest to how far their quality had slipped. That's about the time I first heard Alan play this new thing called a Stelling. What a history.
Man ! , so glad I found this series of Gruhn & Spann talks ! I learned a lot about Gibson and their instruments , as well as a number of mfgs. Like Martin , Paramount , Taylor and how they did what they did in making their respective products . Thank you Ben for making this available to the Bluegrass community . 😎👍
