From the producers of Guitar Business Radio, this is the trailer for GBR Focus. Each episode focuses on guitar-related companies, brands, products and services with plenty of details, but no idle chatter. In this brief introduction to the show, host Jeffrey D Brown explains how we’re digging a little deeper, going a bit further into the weeds, understanding the foundations and getting a bigger picture of the vision.
