b'Magic Leaves had been making dreamy home recordings at a house in the Marin Headlands for years when Josh Bruner found a beat up guitar left in the basement. Lured by it\\u2019s charm, he decided not to toss it, but instead take it apart, sand the body, clean its bits and put it back together. When an accidental rewiring mistake caused the volume knob to be left out the circuit, Josh fell in love with its ratty scratchy tone. This inspired a whole new rocking sound for Magic Leaves.'
