Our first in-person Tone Tailors Podcast episode. JP let us sneak into the shop a little early, and I sat down with the newest member of the Tone Tailors family, Bridget. If you haven’t met her yet, this episode gives you everything you need to know.Bridget Gindhart has been playing guitar for 14 years. She also plays bass, ukulele, piano, writes music, produces, and performs. And she teaches. A lot. What I learned pretty quickly is that her skill set doesn’t end. Every time she finished a sentence, there was another layer behind it.She grew up on piano, switched to trumpet, discovered guitar through Hannah Montana, begged her mom for lessons, and never looked back. She talks about songwriting, producing on MIDI, learning drums by listening, and how many “bad songs” she had to write before the good ones showed up.We get into her move from Penn State to Nashville and back, how she started her band Stars in Sapphire, how she accidentally became known for Irish music, and what it’s like to build a career as a woman in the 2025 music world. Her stories about being doubted in guitar stores… yeah. Wild.We also talk PRS. She’s a PRS Pulse Artist now, but she was a PRS player long before that. Her main guitars, why she loves the necks, why the look of a guitar matters, and how the brand relationship works behind the scenes.And yes, we talk YouTube, teaching, AI in music, and where the industry is heading. She uses AI voices to demo her songs because she doesn’t sing, and it actually makes a ton of sense once she explains it.Stick around to the end for her upcoming releases, including a dark Christmas carol they redid for the Joy to the Berg album.If you want lessons at Tone Tailors, Bridget is teaching now. And don’t forget—our PRS sale runs through the end of the year. Come see us in downtown Lancaster or shop online anytime at shop.tonetailors.com.
