Interview with Paul Reed Smith

Few names are as important to guitarists as Paul Reed Smith. The man behind the brand has become a living legend to players in his 30 brief years since starting the company.

We flew out to Maryland to tour the PRS factory and speak with Paul himself. Check out the video above for some of Paul’s insights on guitar craft and more. This wasn’t our first trip out to PRS, either. Earlier this year, we stopped in to celebrate the company’s 30th anniversary at a huge concert bash featuring Paul on guitar!
