A musician is selected by The Acoustic Guitar Project and is provided an acoustic guitar and a handheld recorder.
That musician has one week to record an original song using only the equipment provided. No editing is allowed.
When the musician is finished, they choose the next musician to participate, and the guitar becomes a viral memento with its own path.
Since beginning in April 2012, The Acoustic Guitar Project has evolved, and it continues to be redefined everyday, but the mission will always remain the same:
• Inspire artists to take action.
• Tell stories from a truthful, meaningful point of view.
• Strive to give people something to believe in.
Like any good song — in the process of being written — there’s no way of knowing where this project will go. That’s for the music to decide. We can only sit back, listen and enjoy.

Guitar Maintenance and Repair
A modern day Geppetto of guitars, Warren has made the recommendations for all guitar purchases and personally checked out every single guitar to make sure they are project-ready.
