Carmine Street Guitars
Available on Prime Video
One shop in the heart of New York's Greenwich Village remains resilient to encroaching gentrification: Carmine Street Guitars. Custom guitar maker Rick Kelly and his young apprentice Cindy Hulej build handcrafted instruments out of reclaimed wood from old hotels, bars, churches and other local buildings. Nothing looks or sounds like them, which is the reason they have been embraced by the likes of Bob Dylan, Lou Reed and Patti Smith. Featuring a cast of prominent musicians and artists: Eszter Balint, Christine Bougie (Bahamas), Nels Cline (Wilco), Kirk Douglas (The Roots), Eleanor Friedberger, Bill Frisell, Dallas Good (The Sadies), Travis Good (The Sadies), Dave Hill, Jaime Hince (The Kills), Stewart Hurwood, Jim Jarmusch (Sqürl), Lenny Kaye (Patti Smith Band), Marc Ribot, Charlie Sexton (Bob Dylan Band).
