Podcast 445: Jason Mays

Atlanta-based Jason Mays has a unique perspective on guitars:
He's a touring musician; the co-founder of YouTube's Working
Class Music; he continues to work sales at Guitar Center; and
he's one of the few people of color reviewing guitar gear. (We're
also happy to announce that Mays is one of the FJ's newest
contributors.)


On this week's podcast, we talk about his music career; the most
popular overheard riffs at Guitar Center in 2024; the economic
challenges of being a gear reviewer/demo artist on YouTube; and
so much more.
