Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for an all-new episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast!
Blake introduces us to the Wyland car bomb, something that may or may not be illegal in 14 states, and instructs us on the special methods he employs when it is in play. Richard has fallen in love with Jazzmasters and Blake tells him I told you so in a much nicer way than if the tables were turned. This eventually turns into a conversation about Squier's 40th Anniversary range via ridiculous torque wrench pressure measurements.
Richard then tries terribly to retell the story of "Trigger's Broom" as an analogy but gets nowhere fast whist accusing Blake of reading classical greek literature and Brian purges his cache live on air. There's been some industry news from Fender with a number of layoffs changes and the guys discuss this and the ramifications for the industry and the consumer.
There have been some interesting new stats around the consumption of "New Music" versus "Old Music" and the guys dig into the implied consequences not just for music but also culture in general. This then expands on to predictions for the future of music and possible use of AI. Brian also makes a little apology before repeating himself.
Stout hacks, Silver Strats, 4000 PSI, Buff Brian, Thought experiments ...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for episode 501 of the Chasing Tone Podcast!
Brian and Blake question Richard's genetics and open up discussing the spectacular 500th episode and Travis gets the blame for everything as we take a fascinating (not) look into the world of podcast production. Richard has DIY questions so Blake take a nap and Brian gives us all some tips on safety at the soldering station. He's very happy with his latest enclosure and the guys talk about different ways of making DIY labels and prints.
Blake put a post out recently and it caused a minor furore on the Internet so we dig down into the history of Heavy Metal and Hard Rock and try and figure out what makes them different. Richard tries to sell Brian on the influence of The Kinks to heavy metal and music in general and fails spectacularly. What is it that differentiates Metal from the other genres? Is it the tones or is it the riffs? The guys try and figure it out but largely go off in different tangents.
The conversation stays heavily focused on the music that we all grew up to and there are various points of interest. Richard saw the new H.E.R. Stratocaster and absolutely loves it and it is swiftly added to the list. Staying in the world of Fender, we talk about the new Eric Johnson Strat with built in overdrive, and the guys postulate over what the circuit might be...
Toning Chase, Enclosure tips, Dicks peds, Black Sabbath, Vanilla Fudge, Questionable things ...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 550 of the Chasing Tone Podcast -The hardest working podcast in town, the new Rockman, and where is your guitar made?
Blake is back from NAMM, appears to be relatively healthy, and somehow everything is Richard's fault. Speaking of the erstwhile king of fuzz, he has been listening to some country music and he has an observation and makes a public apology again. Blake is interrogated for all the good NAMM info and it turns out he doesn't have anywhere near as much as the guys hoped.
Do you care a lot about her your guitars are manufactured? Fender have recently announced there new "Standard" range which is made in Indonesia and the guys talk about whether that actually makes any difference to the quality of the finished article. Brian considers becoming an email scammer in order to get noticed by Musicman and expresses some levels of exasperation about some of the responses to he new MXR Rockman pedal.
Richard was impressed with the new Tone King floor amp pedal thang and makes some wild speculation and has also sold a Telecaster. Brian practices firing him on air. Phil X has been spotted channeling his inner Jimi with a Velvet Fuzz and Blake discusses how he has completely fallen in love with EGO 76 before indulging in some crazy yodeling. We have truly fallen into post Namm madness. Richard reveals a secret about Wampler pedals.
Marshall sold?, Bryan Burke, Shrinkflation, The powers of MIDI, The case of the missing coffee beans, The Zoinkbox, Fart pedal v2...it’s all in this week’s Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for an all-new episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast!
Blake is making content in a hotel room, and it has come to pass that Brian is now indeed a Country and Western megastar. He may deny it but he has played at the legendary Bluebird cafe in Nashville, TN and the guys cannot fail to be impressed. Some heavy names were dropped, and some food talk also occurred. It was also livestreamed on Onlyfans of Electronics, no wait, the Wampler Metaverse, no wait, I forget...Anyhow, Bri gives us a great breakdown of his gig and a little bit of history as he tells us about the amazing acts that graced the stage before him.
Eventide have brought out a rather special effects processor, the H90, and the guys cast their opinions over it and its predecessor, the mighty H9. The guys have also been checking out the new Morley analogue flyrig board and thats definitely turned a few heads. But not Ranger Brian's. Richard has also been on the Fret Talk pedalboard so tells us a bit about that and why he love analog knobs. Spray yourself immediately!
Brian has bought a new guitar and he tells us all about it despite the faux protestations from the crew - and it may surprise you. Well at least 50% of it will. It turns out the guys all have the same piece of gear and they all love it and talk about it in glowing terms. There is almost total agreement here, its a bit disturbing.
Peanut butter cheesecake, Pitchshifting mistakes, Forehead presence, The Shaggs Mk2, Free market research, You are a cheap no name wall wart...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!
