In today’s episode, David speaks with the Grammy-Award winning microtonal guitarist John Schneider.

To achieve these timbres, John performs on many different instruments including guitars with interchangeable fretboards! As founder of Microfest Records, John is a dedicated recording engineer. He spoke of his approach to recording the solo guitar, and his work with the legendary engineer David Royer: designer for Royer and Mojave microphones!
