The guitar has fallen out of the spotlight - and it's time to put it back!

We are the champions of the most beautiful and versatile instrument on the planet, and it's our job to spread its glorious message

In all seriousness though, our incredible little instrument doesn't get the credit it deserves......

You may have heard that my arrangement of the Friends theme song was used in the recent Friends Reunion episode on HBO Max.

It still feels pretty surreal to say that...

In my latest arrangement of the Davy Jones Theme from Pirates of the Caribbean, I found myself in this exact...
