The Mandolins and Beer Podcast #254 John Monteleone

Episode Notes To Order my new album “Around the Clock” Click HERE! (Digitial, Limited CD or Limited Edition Vinyl) My guest this week is an absolute legend in the acoustic instrument world. His instruments have graced the cover of David Grisman’s Quintet ‘80 and been displayed in the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art. John Monteleone has been pushing the luthiery envelope for more than forty years with his refreshing passion for new and elegant designs. Producing instruments of great tonal expression is also one of Monteleone’s missions in life. A dedication to the refined harmonic balances of tone and playability is always the central nucleus of structural foundation around which he often introduces the more interesting design accents and playful nature of his original and beautiful works.  Be sure to check out Jim Richter’s wonderful Monteleone page HERE.  Special thanks to Davey Harrison for sending along a track and a free PDF from the Boston Imposter’s upcoming music book which you can back HERE!
