A conversation on Acoustic Guitars and Mental Health with Garrett Gardner

In Tone-Cast 101, we're joined by Luthier Garrett Gardner from Stigma Guitars. We break down this conversation into two parts: 

Section 1 is a focus on acoustic guitar making, woods, stories of how he got started and what makes a good guitar. 

Section 2 is a focus on mental health, the story behind the name Stigma guitars and why it's important have conversations about when things aren't going well mentally. We also stress the importance of breaks, having good people around you and more.
