The Sunday Papers

The Sunday Papers is brand spanking new weekly offering by Riff City Guitar. Our single goal with this feature is to provide a good morning read over coffee, each and every Sunday. What you won’t find in our new feature is a sales pitch or product recommendations. We’ve asked Andy Perrin—one of the industry’s best writers on guitar gear and culture—to pen short weekly editorials that tell the tales of how we got to where are in the music industry and the players and builders that helped us along the way. In short, The Sunday Papers are about conversations, stories, histories, and experiences with the guitar.
