About Rek & Strings

Welcome to Rek & Strings

Rek & Strings is dedicated to celebrating the world of guitars, from vintage classics to modern innovations. Inspired by the legacy of the Rek guitar brand, we share insights, reviews, and tips for enthusiasts and musicians alike.

Behind the scenes is Jason, a 34-year-old Austin picker who’s been strumming since his uncle handed him a beat-up acoustic at 12. With a ’72 Telecaster he snagged from a pawn shop as his trusty sidekick, Jason’s lived the guitar life—from snapping strings mid-Nirvana covers at high school gigs to catching Gary Clark Jr. tear up the stage at Austin City Limits in his teens.

He’s here to ramble about guitar history like it’s a bar story, dish out tips he’s learned the hard way, and geek out over gear with a cold Shiner Bock in hand. Whether you’re a newbie or a road-worn shredder, Rek & Strings is your spot for real talk about the axes that make music sing.
