Message from Paul Reed Smith

[matonanjin]

You all know I'm a PRS fanboy.  Or you should know it from my very recent NGD post😉  Or failing that look at my signature.😮   I have also had the pleasure of meeting Paul Reed Smith himself in person once, totally by coincidence, when he held an event at the Chicago Music Exchange.  I got the impression, based on this very brief conversation and selfie opportunity, that he is a classy guy.  This message below, I feel, largely confirms that impression: "We believe music is a powerful force in the world, and we hope that, in some small way, the stories we are sharing now are a source of comfort, inspiration, or just good old distraction for you." 

Watch it through to the end for a link to PRS artists that are providing us lessons, free or paid, and concerts, or just reaching out to fans, during this quarantine or lock-down.  What PRS calls "Music Unites".  I have watched a couple of these and if not hugely educational they were each, at a minimum, a fun distraction.

What a wonderful message! That is absolutely right: We are in this together and we will get through this together. 

I consider myself blessed to have guitar, bass, banjo, Steve's lessons, these forums, and various other online learning and just music in general, especially during these difficult times.

Thanks for sharing that!

Pure greatness!

I can’t imagine life without music, especially guitars.
