Podcast 172: Luke Doucet

On today’s Fretboard Journal Podcast, we talk to the amazing
guitarist Luke Doucet of Whitehorse. Doucet tells us about his
upbringing in Canada and his relatively late start into the world
of guitars, along with the fateful day he met his original guitar
teacher in Winnipeg. We then hear about how Doucet is turning his
own young son Jimmy onto music and guitars and how Jimmy (at the
ripe old age of three) inadvertently helped shape the sound of
Whitehorse’s 2017 album, Panther in the Dollhouse.


We also talk guitars, including Doucet’s Gretsch White Falcon,
his Fender Custom Shop Jazzmaster, his Creston Lea offset and
others.
