    This is Roger Cowan - Dog Tired Guitars | Custom Guitars & Straps

    On this episode I chatted with Roger owner of Dog Tired Guitars, custom guitar builder and creator of some of musics greatest guitar straps! "I've always had a passion for old things and the stories that are born from seeing life in all of its imperfections.  To me, there's nothing better than taking an old, neglected structure — something with a history that's barely remembered — and using it to create something that inspires someone to start telling their own stories.  I started Dog Tired as a way of bridging the old and the new — the forgotten stories with the narratives yet to be told.  There's always been a sense of "mojo" around electric guitars.  People who love them know that each one has its own feel and character, and nothing inspires you to create like a guitar you connect with.  Whether it's preserving the history of Oklahoma with a Heritage Series guitar or preserving your own personal history with an Heirloom Series, our goal is to build something beautiful, unique, and meaningful — something that inspires you to tell a story." https://dogtiredguitars.com/ www.instagram.com/dog_tired_guitars  Huge thank you to our sponsors.
