The media covers Jol Dantzig Guitar Design
When someone with a history and credentials like Jol walks away from life at the top of the guitar heap to hand build guitars in a rural barn, people naturally are curious to know why.
Jol reveals his motivation and talks about his new guitars in interviews with Vintage guitar and Guitar Aficionado. In an inspired display of pure guitar porn, Guitar Player lets the Crow spread its wings over two pages.
VINTAGE GUITAR
Writer Tom Guerra opens by dubbing Jol a “Folk Hero” for bailing on the corporate world at Fender to do his own thing. Guerra then grills Jol in a spirited Q&A that probes Jol’s motivation to start over.
GUITAR PLAYER
Guitar Player learned of Jol’s new venture, they couldn’t wait to show the world. The Crow spread across the magazine gatefold was a fitting tribute.
GUITAR AFICIONADO
Guitar Aficionado was first to feature Jol and the Crow. Of the interview with writer Adam Perlmuter, Jol recounts, “The writer’s chuckle when I uttered the phrase ‘corporate schmuck’ told me that it would make it into print.”
