Wood From Chevrolet Plant To Be Made Into Guitars
How cool would it be to own a guitar made here in Detroit with a Chevrolet twist?
General Motors has partnered with Wallace Detroit Guitars to make a limited-edition line of guitars made using wood from GM’s truck plant in Fort Wayne, Indiana. This will help mark the centennial of Chevy Trucks.
Wallace Detroit Guitars was founded in 2014 and uses reclaimed wood from city buildings to build their instruments. Read more about this project from the Detroit Free Press by clicking HERE.
Jade was born and raised in Detroit Rock City and grew up listening to Led Zeppelin, The Who, Tom Petty, etc. In high school she tried multiple different styles from cheerleader to goth but couldn’t do gymnastics and couldn’t get her eyeliner dark enough. She settled on jeans and a t-shirt, playing sports and making normal situations overly awkward. When she’s not making bad jokes on the radio you can find her shanking golf balls into the woods on the golf course and drinking beers at the bar. She has a strict two shot limit when it comes to tequila. Jade enjoys writing and talking about everything happening in Detroit Rock City, our Detroit sports teams, golf, and her fear of robots.
