81 min • 26 augusti 2024

This a story you probably haven't heard before! Derek Kimball from Kimball Hardwoods shares his journey into the guitar industry and supplying high quality, and specific wood for high-end guitars.

We discuss the importance of passion and perseverance in starting a business and the challenges of balancing work and personal life. Derek emphasizes the need for quality and excellent customer service in the industry, as well as the importance of communication and transparency.

The conversation also touches on the controversial topic of "tone wood" and Derek's take on the debate. (The man makes some very interesting points!)

We then shift to the discovery of a particular patch of timber in the Pacific Northwest that may have extremely positive ramifications on the global supply of quilted maple. You are really going to want top hear this!

The problems with illegal harvesting, customers requesting fraud, guitar pedals, chasing your dreams, and a whole lot more on this episode of The Tone Mob Podcast!
