On the first episode of Guitar Moves, Matt Sweeney heads to Berkeley, CA to meet the Stooges’ James Williamson. He learns about the history of the Stooges, the “Nashville Tuning,” and how to achieve the bone-crushing guitar tone on “Search & Destroy.”

Guitar Moves, hosted by Matt Sweeney, is a show where the viewer gets an opportunity to sit in on a private, interesting, and hilarious conversation about guitars, music, life, and their craft. During the season, Sweeney and his guest play through licks, riffs, and solos that inform their style, influence their playing, and define their sound.
