Welcome to Just Announced #6, a regular flow of very brief “snippet style” announcements from all over the business world of guitar. From artists to companies, from organizations to events, and more. We present these items for the quickest news experience possible without overkill. You can help… see below for more.

You can help us spread the word! It's still early in the game, but we're looking for all kinds of interesting and worthwhile announcements in the form of new products and services, special offers of interest, upcoming events, news (regular, unusual or investigative), artists and music business, whatever as long as it's guitar-related in some way. We'd love to hear from you. Reach out at guitarbusiness@substack.com.
What’s Next?
While we’ve been at this for multiple decades now (about 4 to be roughly exact), GBW is little more than a month old at this writing. But we have a lot of stuff in the hopper upcoming that you mostly won’t see or hear on other outlets. A few of those items are:
For those who may remember (or not) the rather iconic website, The Guitar Wall, we have a unique retrospective on its 10-year run that started in 2007.
More chapter installments of the Destination Workbook for Your Guitar-Related Business or Career to help take you to the next level.
Interviews and insights from guitar-related individuals on what business success means to them and how they achieved it (or not).
And, of course, the proverbial much more!
So, there’s a lot to do and a long way to go. And for sure, we’re going to do our part to make that happen in a mutually beneficial way. If you like the direction we’re going, you can play a part or two if you’re so inclined. You’ll be able to directly support this project in the near future, but for right now, we’d certainly appreciate it if you would take a moment and subscribe (if you haven’t already) and/or share it with others you think would be interested.
