Podcast 270: Jason Loughlin

On this week’s Fretboard Journal Podcast, we’re talking to
guitarist/instructor Jason Loughlin. Loughlin’s latest project is
Sound on Sound, a rather unconventional TrueFire course dedicated
to teaching the multi-track arranging of Les Paul. Over the
course of the lesson, Loughlin walks students through a
nine-guitar (!) arrangement of the jazz standard "After You’ve
Gone." Though it sounds daunting, Loughlin is able to easily
break down and demystify how recordings like this are made and
reveal some of Les' favorite tone hacks, like emulating the sound
of drums and bass via his six-string guitar.


We also talk to Loughlin about how to encapsulate those classic
Les Paul sounds with modern gear, some of Loughlin's other loves
– like early Sun Records recordings – and much more.  


This week’s Fretboard Journal Podcast is sponsored by Mono and
Retrofret Vintage Guitars. Don’t forget to also tune into the
Truth About Vintage Amps podcast, which is about to celebrate its
first birthday.
