Ep. 232 - It Might Give You A Thickness

Guitar Story 00:13:24

Walrus Audio Melee: Wall of Noise $299 (Stinger: Wampler dual fusion) 00:22:26

  • Distortion/Reverb combo with a joystick!
  • The vertical axis on the joystick controls distortion, horizontal axis controls mix
  • Order switcher for distortion > reverb, or reverb > distortion
  • 3 different reverb types accessed by pressing both switches.
    • Ambient reverb: Big, long decay, wash of sound.
    • Octave down reverb: Similar to the “Dark” mode on Slo.
    • Reverse reverb with Feedback:

Big Ear WHAC-A $250 (stinger: bit commander) 00:29:56

  • Colab with 60 Cycle Hum
  • 60 will be made, they will be autographed
  • It’s a boost; it’s what you think; it’s dumb
  • Clearly deserves our modest signal boost…

Ep. 224 - Anything is portable if you pick it up

Pigtronix Star Eater Fuzz $179 (stab: Mayflower) 00:11:37

  • All analog super jumbo fuzz.
  • Rocker switches for Silicon or Germanium diode clipping
  • Contour switch engages either a scoop or bump and a Sweep control
  • Does cool octavia stuff above the 12th fret.
  • It’s disgusting and I love it.

Pedal Genie 00:21:48

From discord: 00:34:04

Talk about the logistical workings of shaping an entire rig from scratch.  For either home use, recording, gigs, what a board would realistically have to look like, pedal choice is mostly personal preference but most will have the same ingredients.  Real amp or sim of some kind. How portable do you want it to be?

Ep. 212 - NOW You Need To Retube Your Amp?!

Derek’s Novo is in production! (stab: Hudson Broadcast) 00:08:32

Reviews From Last Year! (stab: Keeley Aria) 00:13:18

  • Both from 2021 because we never check this crap
  • Five stars from Oaties77: I like a lot of guitar and music podcasts and this one is different from the others. It has all of the things I like about most podcasts with news and reviews and stuff but there is a lot more interesting and funny stuff in the banter.
  • Five stars from Mattxyzed: If, like me , you love the Guitar Nerds or 60 Cycle hum, you may find this podcast jarring because the hosts appear to actually have some professional level knowledge of how effects work, and what recording music is like. However, don’t let that turn you off because if you slog through all the useful information, you will eventually get to the butt related jokes and other nonsense, and everything will be all right.

Mythos and Novo team up for the Air Lane Drive (stab: Bogner Ecstacy Red) 00:19:23

  • Derek got one! Wheeee!
  • Dual overdrive of the same circuit but with different voicings
  • Simple gain controls. Level controls on are on trim pots inside
  • Single transistor topology with hard clipping. Can add a little extra sparkle or get really fuzzy
  • Suite 8, the Novo side is medium gain with full bass and top end clarity. Asymmetrical clipping
  • Suite 9, the Mythos side is more aggressive with a bass cut and smoother top end. Symmetrical clipping
  • $260, I splurged. Sold out. Batch 2 coming later this year.
  • The people want us to talk about pedal scalping

Ep. 211 - A Pile of Tape
  • Derek went to a bluegrass concert at a retirement home (stab: Wampler Dual Fusion) 00:11:54
  • Boss RE-2 is $250, also there’s the RE-202 now (stab: Big Ear Loaf) 00:20:02
    • Larger, 3 button version of the space echo replacing the 201
    • Has more controls, presets, MIDI, and USB.
    • $400
  • Line 6 DL4 MKII (stab: Mr Black Supermoon) 00:26:40
    • The original DL4 dropped in 1999!
    • This is brilliant because it has all the original DL4 sounds as well as the new Helix delay sounds available!
    • Many looper people (see Reggie Watts) use the DL4 for their vocal layering, so Line6 included an XLR input on the back! Could use it for a vocal mic, or even for micing up an acoustic. Works with any dynamic mic and has an input gain control
    • Micro SD card slot for the looper to pull from
    • Expression input which can also be footswitches 4 and 5.
    • Still contains the looper, stereo in/out, MIDI in/out,  but with twice as many delays and now has SECRET REVERBS
    • Looks like the Helix footswitch hardware
    • $299. $50 more than the original.
  • Pedal Genie 00:38:43
  • Entry amp under 1000? (stab: guitalele) 00:53:15
    • Yes, Derek sold the AC30 to get the Revv
    • Derek’s pick is obviously the Revv D20 (or G20!)

  • Curling Story 00:12:58
  • Derek went to a concert 00:15:42
    • The guitarist from Volbeat plays weird
    • There wasn’t a guitar amp to be seen all night

New Boss RE-2 Space Echo leak?? (stab: WA Bellwether) 00:22:36

  • We don’t really dig in with pedal leaks on this show, but I so want this to be real.
  • The RE-201 Space Echo is one of the famed tape echo units, they sound great. Super cool. Tons of mojo.
  • The RE-20 has been out for years. One of those old Boss double wide pedals. Still very cool
  • But the RE-2? Put that shit in a regular boss enclosure? Let’s do it.

Pedal Genie 00:29:09

GTRS Guitars (stab: MS Holy Dove) 00:52:38

  • S-style guitars with effects by Mooer
  • The second tone pot has a push/push that contains effects combos, amp sim, cab sim, etc.
  • You can go into a PA with it, straight into headphones, or into a regular amp, or you can turn it off entirely and have a regular guitar
  • Runs on a battery that charges over USB-C
  • There’s an app to change effects and parameters and simple operation on the guitar itself. Push to change effects, turn the knob to increase the amount of effect.
  • Can also get a small four button controller to change effects like a pedal.
  • Do we need this? Is this cool? Is the controller thing antithetical to the whole idea?

Ep.207 - I Have To Put My Legs In Wednesday And Thursday

Squier Classic Vibe Baritone Tele (stab: Hudson Broadcast) 00:08:02

  • Basically the same classic vibe tele that many adore, but with a 27” scale
  • 60’s styling with the 5-screw pickguard and double bound body(!)
  • Two colors: black and 3-tone sunburst
  • Nyotah body wood. Never heard of it.
  • $500. COME ON, YOU GUYS.

Castedosa Guitars  (stab: Bondi Sick As) 00:15:14

  • Former Fender Custom Shop builder Carlos Lopez has started his own company
  • He’s making 27” scale baritones. It’s baritone week.
  • Offset strat inspired body, but it’s big.
  • Mastery bridge and trem, neck binding and block inlays.

Ep. 206 - The One With Six Titles

Big news from Derek! 

PRS Silver Sky SE (stab: Tombstone Thirty7FX) 00:18:12

  • Confirmed at $849 US!
  • This is the one to get, folks

The Maestro Original Collection pedals (stab Dwarfcraft Gears) 00:19:28

  • Maestro was the first pedal brand, kinda cool to see them back with the vintage aesthetic
  • The lineup includes:
    • Fuzz Tone FZ-M (based on the original Fuzz Tone circuit as heard on “Satisfaction” by the stones), Ranger Overdrive, Invader Distortion, Comet Chorus, Discoverer Delay
  • They’re all $149, except for the delay which is $159.
  • Everything I’ve seen marketing-wise is how GIBSON is reintroducing them. Not sure when they acquired the brand, but they’re pushing gibson hard.

Pedal Genie 00:25:48

  • Played the Bearfoot Candy Apple Fuzz demo
  • No PG pedal for Derek, but we can demo the Duellist

Ep. 205 - Ya Got Cheesed, Ya Little Bitch!

PRS Silver Sky SE (stab: EQD Hoof Reaper) 00:14:58

  • The John Mayer artist model gets the SE treatment
  • SE’s are made overseas but set up at the PRS factory prior to shipment to dealers
  • Poplar body instead of Alder
  • Same pickups as the original
  • 2 point trem instead of a 6 point
  • 8.5” radius instead of 7.25”, interesting
  • Otherwise it’s the same guitar just made overseas. Prices are speculated to be around $850. This is great.

Pedal Genie - sharks for some reason

  • Talk about…..no actually like, challenge people, to view gear as something that matters so much less than how we operate with it

    In the grand scheme there’s so much that doesn’t ultimately matter, and as a new gear year resolution, take a step back and evaluate what you have already, and how much something new won’t actually matter and there's no use in getting worked up

  • Updates 00:11:24
    • Sold the vox, bought the D20 (stab: Mathews The Architect)
  • Fender Acoustasonic Telecaster MIM (stab: EHX super pulsar) 00:25:46
    • This is probably the one you want
    • Now made in Mexico and part of the Player series
    • Fewer features, but also $800 cheaper
    • Apparently these are really taking off
    • So with the lower price comes some cost saving measures like a non-rechargeable battery (9V), 3-way selector instead of 5 (fewer sound options), different Piezo system

Ep. 200 - It's Just Some Schmuck Named Joe Walsh (Feat. Doug Kauer of Kauer Guitars!)

EPISODE 200 IS HERE, BABY! 

HUGE thank you to everyone supporting the show, whether it be from Patreon, casual listeners, dedicated fans, friends of friends - we love you all and owe you a tremendous debt of gratitude for making the show what it is today. 

This week we sit down with California based luthier Doug Kauer of Kauer Guitars to talk about guitar building! Many thanks to Doug for joining us to celebrate episode 200. 

Unfortunately we lost the audio from Doug part way through the episode, but we'll be sure to have him back another time to discuss the segment we had to cut out. More details about that in the episode. 

Lastly, if you are not a Patreon supporter and would like to purchase a Tone Control care package, send us a note and we'll get you sorted out!

  • Will you be doing any exclusive colors for shops like CME?
  • Is there an expectation to come up with something even crazier than the triplegraph?

  • Joyo Moist Reverb (Lollygagger Canaglia) 00:16:41
    • If I’m being honest, I put this here because of the name.
    • Looks like a pretty solid reverb
    • 3 sounds, church, plate, and studio
    • 32-bit DSP
    • No price yet but Joyo is very affordable. I’m guessing under $100 for this.



  • Questions from listeners: (Hungry Robot Borderland Lite) 01:00:14
  • By the way, we’re always taking questions from listeners. If you’re curious about something, get at us!
  • From Timmy S: Is it worth having a computer interface for an instrument to record directly into your music software? Or should one simply have a nice mic and a speaker?
  • From J Pain: What gear do I use in a multi-guitar band? If a band member uses a single coil guitar to play said thing then maybe I need to use a humbucker guitar to cover the other frequencies/sound/effects to accompany the single coil. Should I use effects that accompany the other players, etc?

Ep. 196 - Radium Nightcap Is My New Band Name

For episode 200 we’re opening up recording night to ALL members of TTC Discord! No Patreon subscription is needed.

  • Fractal Audio FM9 (Stinger: Strymon Volante) 00:17:24
    • Double the processing power of the FM3, but still not as strong as the rack mount Axe FX3
    • The FM3 came out last year and has 3 footswitches so it was often compared to the HX Stomp. The FM9 has 9 switches and looks like the one to get if you don’t want/can’t afford the Axe FX3
    • So it’s got all the stuff, we don’t need to tell you how great Fractal gear is.
    • No built in expression of any kind but of course can receive expression pedals.
    • Personally, I think the FM9 is the one you want. It does all the stuff most people need and includes footswitches so you don’t need the rack unit plus a controller to gig with it.
    • I think Fractal was losing ground to Helix/Kemper/Headrush when it came to pedalboard designed modelers that could be used in all settings.
    • FM3 is $1100, FM9 is $1600, and Axe FX3 MKII is $2300.



  • Review Reviews (Stinger: Empress Nebulus) 00:58:31
  • Listener questions/topics: Stinger: Earth Quaker Data Corruptor 01:07:45
    • When does a pedalboard get so big or complicated that it ceases to be useful anymore?
    • Collective stress around gigs/concerts with Delta variant growing concerning. Venues requiring proof of vaccination or a negative test.

Ep. 192 - I Don't Think It's a Bad Pedal, but it Sounds Bad
  • Derek’s Helix band rig with IEMs (stab: 1981 DRV)
    • Using the sends and returns as inputs and outputs, I’m able to get click track, backing tracks, and a monitor mix in IEMs.
    • This allows to send Helix to the PA and lets the sound guy manage levels for monitoring just like with a floor wedge
    • Also can apply any blocks on my monitor feed if I want, like EQ, compression, etc.
    • DI box recommendations?
  • Gamechanger Audio Bigsby Pedal (Coppersound Tribblegraph)
    • Partnered with Fender and Bigsby
    • Bigsby vibrato pitch bending pedal with Bigsby hardware on the top.
    • Can do the subtle bigsby thing, but the DSP allows for more extreme Whammy style sounds too
    • Spring loaded hardware can be pitched down or up by pressing on the either side of the spring.
  • Pedal Genie
  • Suhr Discovery Analog Delay (Caroline Parabola)
    • Built with 4 reissue MN3005 bucket brigade chips = lots of customization
    • 127 preset banks!
    • Tap tempo control averages your last 4 taps

    • Screen shows preset bank, BPM, or MS in delay time, 40-1100ms delay time
    • High and low cut controls as well as modulation with three waves to choose from
    • Every parameter can be controlled by midi and/or expression pedal
    • Switchable true or buffered bypass

Ep. 190 - So It's An Ear Pearl
  • Justin’s first proper recording session in over a year
  • Derek’s new pedalboard (Catalinbread Adineko)
  • Should we talk about the new John Mayer single? (Janus Fuzz)
  • Apple Music with Dolby Atmos (MS Tree of Life)
    • Some sound incredible, some sound incredibly bad. Sup with that?
  • Thorpy Pulse Doppler ~$375 (CM Bass Drive)
    • This is a weird one, but it’s the most exciting thing I’ve seen with regard to Phasers in a while.
    • 4 stage phaser/vibrato sounds on board but you can get harmonic trem sounds from it too
    • Has a manual control like a flanger, so when the depth is increased, manual sets the frequency range of the sweep
    • Essentially two notch filters, but the Dual switch allows you to sync them or arrange them in figure 8 pattern
    • You can also invert the phase effect which results in more hollow tones, or switch it to Pulse mode for more trem based things.
    • Features a dry blend
  • PRS Archon 50 (TC Viscous Vibe)
    • Relaunched combo and amp head, this is the high gain offering from PRS
    • Combo comes with a Celestion V-Type
    • 6CA7 power tubes, ECC83 preamp tubes
      • Basically EL34 power stage
      • Ships with JJ’s
    • Gain structure and EQ have been redesigned, generally more usable and not as gained out all the time.
    • Now more affordable, built in Indonesia
    • Head: $1000, Combo: $1200

We ran into an issue with the PS-5 Demo playback! If you want to hear it, check out the live stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWEAwrWa6h0

Ep. 189 - What If We Painted It Black?
  • Patron and friend of the show Doug Gann is releasing music under the name Ghost Stories in August 2021. Will be available on all streaming services and such!
  • Derek bought a 1981 DRV. “Stranger” edition! (stab: Keeley Eccos)
  • Gibson “Exclusives” collection (stab: Korg MKS)
    • There’s nothing that different about these except the “exclusive” colors
    • I don’t think that word means what they think it means
    • Why are they still making olive drab? It’s ugly.
    • Only cool thing is a new P90 loaded ES-335.
    • It’s literally two green guitars and five black guitars and they expect us to get excited about this?
    • I guess they’ll be adding different colors to this “exclusives” line later on.
      • Do they mean limited?

Ep. 188 - This May Come as a Shock to You, I’ve never played a Dumble
  • Episodes 1 through 29 have been added to the podcast feed! They are backdated so scroll down. Some episodes starting around 129 don’t want to play in certain podcast players but they do work on Spotify, so if you really want them, listen there. No paid account needed. (Adventure Audio Glacial Zenith)
  • First band practice in a LONG time. Used the Helix and FRFR cab. Discuss!
  • Old Blood Noise Endeavors Expression Ramper $60 (CMAT Butah)
    • This is the better version of the EHX expression stomp from Ep. 186
    • Sets two expression settings and lets you move between them, either in one motion, A then B then A, or as a continuous LFO sweep.
    • Triangle mode is an up then down smooth ramp between A and B sounds
    • Square mode is a binary change between A and B sounds
    • A to B mode goes from one to the other and does not return (like the EHX one)
    • This is 100% worth the extra $20 over the EHX one.
    • Long, very hipster, but very informative video demo from OBNE
  • Pedal Genie
  • Testing out new speakers/headphones: how? What do you listen to?

Intro Music: "Part of the Room" by Jamie Evans!

  • Question from Doug: Justin, how much has your work affected your ability to enjoy just listening to music? (stab: Mesa Throttle Box)
  • Pedal Genie
  • Gamechanger Audio Light Pedal Reverb 349$ (stab: Walrus Rainbow Machine)
    • World’s first analog optical spring reverb tank
    • Their claim is that a lot of energy is lost when the source audio reaches the spring tank output. This uses infrared sensors along the length of the spring to detect insanely small movements in the spring tank
    • It opens up a wider range of frequencies, harmonics, and overtones that are typically lost in the mechanical reverberation process.
    • Orange LEDs for your traditional reverb signal, white LEDs for the optical sensors
    • Controls for spring and optical sensors let you blend the two together
    • The control knob lets you choose which sets of optical sensors are active along the length of the spring
    • Trails on/off switch, footswitch can be set to latching or momentary
    • Expression pedal input
    • Bunch of modes with effects and stuff.
      • Sweep mode is a modulation style that activates the optical sensors in a wave pattern top to bottom.
      • Trem mode pulses the optical sensors at the top of the spring which only adds trem to the reverb signal, so you can dial out the dry knob to blend it.
      • Reflect mode is is a lo-fi delay that sends the signal back through the reverb.
      • Feedback mode sets the reverb to self-oscillation.
      • Harmonic mode is somewhat like a shimmer but it’s created in analog.

    • Told by the people who make them and the artists that use them.

BONUS: The CopperSound Pedals/Third Man Records TRIPLEGRAPH

The Triplegraph is a digital octave pedal designed by CopperSound Pedals and Jack White, featuring three proprietary telegraph keys and an integrated auxiliary loop. Utilizing a high-power DSP Blackfin Processor, Triplegraph triggers an octave down with the left key, octave up with the right key, while the middle key activates a killswitch or auxiliary loop.

In KILL mode, the middle key acts as a momentary killswitch, allowing the player to remove their dry signal and attain a fully wet octave up and/or down when used in conjunction with the octave keys.

In AUXILIARY mode, the player can connect one or more of their favorite effects in parallel with the octaves via the send/return jacks, and trigger them in momentary bursts. The high and low octaves can be triggered in parallel with the dry signal when the octave keys are pressed independently.

The octaves themselves track seamlessly with zero latency and can be triggered in latching or momentary modes, using our “Loctave” toggle switches. The telegraph keys themselves are composed of custom stainless steel and aluminum components, making them indestructible and exceedingly durable for both hand and foot operation. Over four years in the making, the collaborative result is an innovative, state of the art clean-tracking octave pedal, capable of standing its own against industry standards.

Limited Edition and Standard Edition Bundles

There are two special bundles available for Triplegraph: The Limited Edition model comes with an exclusive Yellow finish, black and white print, a custom steel machined serial badge plate, a Certificate of Authenticity signed by Jack himself, and a custom-designed book, all elegantly packed in a special edition box. There are only 100 Limited Edition units available.

All of the Standard Editions are finished in a sharp, matte black finish with yellow and white print, packed in a standard box. Both models come with a custom-designed 130+ page book that documents the entire process; spanning over four years of prototyping, engineering, building, road testing, and stories from this exciting collaboration, all designed and photographed by CopperSound.

  • Drift gently speeds and slows the LFO rate. Not randomized, but still variable.
  • Hold the Tap switch to activate secondary sounds.
  • Controls for rate, depth, lag, and D-C-V
  • Lag lets you set the center delay time that the LFO modulates around.
  • D-C-V blend is setting the ratio of dry to wet signal through the mono channel. Vibrato fully clockwise, chorus around noon, dry fully counter-clockwise

Ernie Ball Music Man Dustin Kensrue Stingray RS (stab: Bogner Oxford)

  • Modified version of the Stingray RS, such as a stacked volume/tone pot and a relocated selector switch
  • HS configuration, “hot vintage” pickups. Middle of the road rock and roll
  • Mahogany body, maple neck, 22 stainless steel frets, satin finish, locking tuners. 25.5” scale.
  • Push/push button on the pickguard toggles between normal guitar operation and bypassing the controls to a stereo cable.
    • The guitar is stereo. Using a Y cable, you can send each pickup to a different destination.
    • Dustin uses Helix live and this allows him to create patches that also control the pickup selection on his guitar. One into the guitar input, the other into the FX loop return.
    • Expression can blend between the two pickups, or you can use a block on/off to switch
  • $2600

Ep. 166 - Metal Zone For Scale
  • Coppersound Broadway and Strategy (Red Witch Factotum)
    • Thanks to Alex and Coppersound pedals for sending us some pedals to try!
    • Strategy Analog Preamp and Boost (featured on Tone of the Week on 7/7!)
      • Based on a hi-fi grade op-amp with controls for volume and tone.
      • Very musically tuned tone control. Lots of range on the volume. Great for hitting the front of your amp.
    • Broadway Treble Booster and Germanium Preamp
      • Inspired by the original Rangemaster circuit
      • Three way pickup selector emulates the pickup positions on a tele
      • Internal trim pot for compression and dynamics
    • $249 each
    • Both of these can be customized to match YOUR strat or tele.
  • Walrus Audio Slo and Fathom combo (DBA Ghost Delay)
    • Slo is a multi-texture reverb
      • Has cool things like a sub octave in the echo, an auto swell mode, dream mode which has a latching mode
      • Really powerful filter controls, a sustain switch, and an X knob that changes its use based on what setting you’re on.
    • Fathom is a multi-function reverb with 4 different reverb algorithms
      • Hall, plate, lo-fi, and sonar
      • Lo-fi is a filtered reverb with an AM radio sound, or really lush chorus-y/tape sounds
      • Sonar has both a low and high octave included. The X knob blends the high octave in.
    • Now both of these are in one enclosure
    • In/Out for each pedal? Like that weird distortion from last week. BUT, this allows you to insert other pedals between the two reverbs. When not in use, it’s still one input and one output. SMART.

    • High-gain mode with symmetric silicon hard clipping. Heavy compression, thick and chewy.
    • Boost/cut bass control comes before the overdrive stage
    • Blend knob dials in some of your clean tone, which means this can stack beautifully with other overdrive pedals or into a broken up amp.
    • Here’s a great video on what diode clipping is and how it works in the Ages

  • Question from Jonas: (stab: Jrockett WTF Fuzz)
    • What is the benefit of separating your signal to run either into the front of your amp (pre-amp) and then clicking to a preamp pedal for a different tone into the effects return... Vs. preamp pedal into the front of your amp.

    • Made in Canada by Steve Demedash.
    • Steve currently makes 2 pedals: the T-120 Videotape Echo and the 112+ Drive Channel
    • T-120
      • Inspired by the garbled audio that comes from cruddy, worn out VHS tapes.
      • It sounds extremely good. Like, this is more than just a modulated delay.
      • Controls for time, echo, intensity, depth, speed, and tape quality
      • It’s available in a standard and a deluxe version. Deluxe has soft switching, echo trails, full wet to full dry mix, self oscillation switch, stereo out via TRS
    • 112+ Drive Channel
      • Schecter guitars wanted to trade him a guitar of his choice for some pedals so he designed an overdrive pedal for the trade
      • Internal chargepump is boosting it up to 34V!
      • Features a JFET preamp, a voice control that sets how much bass is passed through to the drive section.
      • Drive section is big a wide, can get clippy and fuzzy. Signal is reamplified after the drive then goes to 3band active EQ  (boost/cut)
      • Sounds really nice. Can get splattery, but also has a nice crisp jangle to it.
  • Pedal Genie
  • Fender Ultra Series (stab: Bogner Oxford)
    • New top of the line flagship models. American made, premium parts. Replacing the American Elite series
    • All have noiseless pickups, new neck heel contours, faster playing necks w/ satin finish and 10-14” compound radius. Locking tuners on guitars

  • Shot out and congratulations to The Tone Jerks on their 100th episode! (chicka)
  • A quick follow up questions from Instagram: (stab: Strymon El Cap)
    “Derek, did you ever solve the iPhone headphone jack problem?”
  • Steve’s quintessential Tone Control episode (stab: WA Jupiter Fuzz)
  • Universal Audio (stab: Angry Ape)
  • Maxon 40th Anniversary OD808 (stab: Alexander Amnesia)

    “Max-gain” knob for increased gain, output, and low end response.
    400 units worldwide, the first 40 of which will be signed by Robert Keely
  • Pedal Genie
    Walrus Audio Lillian 199$
  • Strymon Iridium (stab: JHS Bonsai)
    Amp and IR Cab in a pedal
    Three amps: Fender Deluxe Reverb, Vox AC30, Marshall Plexi Superlead
    9 included cabinets, option to load your own IRs, headphone output on the front makes for easy home use.
    This is smart because it moves amp and cab modeling into a pedal size
    $400, but it’s probably easier to get a grip on than something like an HX stomp for a lot of people
  • Thank you again to all of our patrons for supporting us! We're really overwhelmed by the response and we're so glad you're here.

    Ep. 140 - Sometimes We All Want That Shitty Pizza

     

    • Derek sold him amp! Kind of… 
    • HX Stomp (stab: OE Revival)
    • Digitech drop update. Standard guitar in an Eb band. (stab: Mathews The Architect)
    • Righteous Tele update (Stab: 805)
    • Gibson update  (stab: JHS Unicorn)
      • They released a statement FINALLY. They acknowledged that this is something they have to do but their tone was all wrong. Too little too late, and the actual statement still didn’t soften things much. 
      • Apparently they have threatened dealers with legal action unless they stop selling Dean guitars, alleges Dean.  
    • Earthquaker Devices Plumes (stab: WA Luminary)
      • It’s a tube screamer with three clipping modes. Like a super baby Palisades. 
      • Symmetrical LED clipping, OpAmp distortion, Asymmetrical silicon diode clipping
      • Level, tone, and gain controls. 
      • Relay based true bypass with momentary option. 
      • The real killer feature is that it’s $99. 
      • TS Mini is $79, TS9 is $99, TS808 is $179. Boutique pedal company getting in at those low prices. Cool! 
    • Discussion topic idea from fan-of-the-show Eric Giribaldi (stab: WA Plainsman)
      • “What do you do when you reach a crossroads with your equipment?” 
      • As in, coming to terms with not needing 11 overdrive pedals, needs vs. wants. 
      • Guitarists are weird people. We want all the latest cool tech and big rigs, but also want the simplicity of grab-and-go, maybe some pedals, and an amp. 
      • Downsizing your set up. When is it time to sell?

    Ep. 139 - It's A Heat Clock!

    Ernie Ball VP Jr. (stab: Chicka-wahh)

    • I asked them when this sucker would be out and they said winter 2019. 
    • Gibson’s “Play Authentic” marketing results in them suing Dean (stab: Bogner Wessex)
      • Basically making an example of them 
      • Gibson posted this video, which they later removed. Isn’t Mark Agnesi just the worst?
      • They’re claiming that any copy of one of their design styles or trademarks is “a counterfeit gibson guitar”. Which I guess they’re saying is what Dean is doing? 
      • “To the manufactureres out there, we want you to know that you’ve been warned.” 
      • “This isn’t about us trying to be bullies, or trying to stifle the boutique marketplace. This is about protecting our legacy”, except you’re also being bullies! 
      • Watch out, literally everyone else. 
      • They added a counterfeit submission form to their website so you can blow the whistle on anyone you think is infringing on Gibson’s trademarks… So, since they’re going after Dean, I guess this means anyone is eligible. 
    • New Music from Two Cheers: Future Constellations 
    • Fender Vintera Series (stab: WA Mayflower)
      • Overhauling the MIM line! All floating around $900-1000 bucks. GREAT. 
      • Big era years: 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, each available with a “Vintage” or “modified” option
        • Vintage is pretty close to period correct, Modified is more like “inspired by” but with modern appointments (flatter radius, S1 switching, etc) 
      • Some highlights: 
        • 60’s tele with a Bigsby 
        • 60’s Jazzmatser with matching headstock 
        • 60’s Jaguar HH 
        • Really rad new colors on a bunch of these: white blonde, natural, sienna sunburst, Firemist gold on a jazz bass looks HOT. 
    • Pedal Genie
      • Digitech Drop demoed with Metal Zone. 
      • Daredevil Fearless Distortion

        • Much fuzzier than the Yellow but can also be more of a straightforward rock tone 
        • Based on the Meastro FZ1-S, an early version of which later became the DOD Carcosa Fuzz 
        • Works best with a crunchy amp channel. 
        • Controls for gain, bias, detail, and output. Toggle switch for clipping options.
