From the Classical Guitar Alive radio program interview archive- this was my first interview with John Williams, back in 1998. Classical Guitar Alive had only been nationally-broadcast for one year, and it was a real treat to interview one of my favorite guitarists. 

In this interview, Williams talks about his preference for guitars build by Australian guitar maker Greg Smallman over traditional Spanish-style constructed guitars.
