In a 2014 interview for McPherson Guitars, Jacobs explained his common day as, “I wake up in the morning and have my coffee, and eat my Cheerios. Spend some time with my wife and I’m pretty much writing a song every single day at 12 o’clock.” Sometimes “a song just happens like that,” he stated, snapping his fingers. But whether it does or not, then he heads into the studio and “by the end of the day, I’m pretty spent.”
Writing and producing might be “rather taxing,” the Minneapolis local stated, “but I will never complain. Still to this day, I can’t believe it’s what I do for a living, and it truly is a blessing…Five, 10 years from now, honestly I’d love to just still be doing what I’m doing.”
He likewise shared that he got his very first personalized McPherson as an anniversary present from his spouse, with their wedding event date “1-1-11” etched into the back of the headstock. He called it “literally the most beautiful guitar” he ‘d ever seen or played.
Jacobs utilized the instrument to perform their wedding event tune “Say I Do” while Pickler danced the rumba on Dancing With the Stars in 2013, throughout the week the entrants commemorated the very best year of their lives.
