About this listen
Backstage Burrow Ep2-2026 🎸🐰 From quiet strummer to cultural thunder — how the electric guitar found its voice.
Take a cozy hop into the hidden history of amplification, innovation, and rebellious noise as we trace the guitar’s journey from back‑row rhythm keeper to electrified icon. From Hawaiian lap steels to “broomstick with pickups” prototypes, this episode uncovers how marginalized musicians, bold tinkerers, and a few happy accidents reshaped American sound.
