This podcast is Round Two with Chris Kelly as he was gracious enough to come back and answer the numerous questions we received after the first one.
Chris has a storied tenure with legacy guitar brands such as Robin, Ibanez, Peavey, Budda Amps, Trace Elliot, and Composite Acoustic. Much of our time focused on the Ibanez years as Chris was Director of Artist Relations and headed up the Custom Shop from 1985-1994.
There is so much goodness in this podcast and I think it is best summarized by this statement from Chris about his career, "There hasn't been a lowest low or a highest high. It's all been one beautiful ride."
Chris is full of a grateful heart and his passion, compassion, and love bleeds through our entire conversation. He shares his thoughts for emerging artists, guitar design principles, and another handful of unbelievable rock n' roll stories.
Just a couple of those nuggets include the best cure for Los Angeles sized hangover, meeting with Prince to discuss designing one of his wild guitars, and the two guitars he did for Kurt Cobain.
The takeaway for me from this podcast is the incredible life lessons and amazing nuggets of wisdom Chris shares. Truly, his remarks and sentiments are beautiful.
What a pleasure, thank you Chris!!!
