Elkhart has been known for producing a lot of music and musical instruments for years, and Kelly and Rick visit with Perry Germann who is building custom guitars that are being played by some pretty big names.

The "In The Bend" section of the South Bend Tribune is a great resource for what's happening around Michiana.
