Ferguson Guitars is a family business in Belgrade spearheaded by Ren Ferguson, former master luthier at Gibson and Guild Guitars for decades. Along with two of his children, Virginia and Timothy, Ren discusses the importance of wood, shape, and even picks on the distinct timbre of each hand-made guitar. The Fergusons were kind enough to open the doors of their workshop to us and share the full experience.

We’re putting the “wood” in Hollywood this episode as Outlaw Beat visits a Missoula particle board factory that is the new home of Story House Montana, Missoula’s new 47-acre film and TV studio that has deep-rooted connections to efforts to create affordable housing in the Rocky Mountains.
