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!

421 - The Wampler Moxie - It's New Pedal Time!
Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for an all-new episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast!
Wampler Pedals have announced the new Moxie overdrive pedal and it makes sounds! Lots of different sounds! Well, according to Blake anyhow. Brian explains the topology of the circuit to a somnambular Blake and an ever sarcastic Richard. Did anyone mention John Mayer? Brian then goes into the modifications in detail before Blake brings the conversation to food again and Richard talks a bit about origins of the name and the graphics for the pedal.
Richard signed up for the Dall E Ai image generator and he is mightily impressed and tells us of his early exploits creating foolish imagery of limited use. Brian has finally decided to go Wireless so tells us all about it. He's also been playing around with his Captor X a fair bit too, he has a lot of views, and has found some sounds that thrill him greatly so he flexes his EQ perfecting abilities.
There are a few shocks as the guys analyse some data about the top touring artists in the world - mainly that Richard hasn't heard of half of them. Brian has a story about a guitar center in Sarasota. Blake has a strategy to help. Richard wants a hurdy gurdy.
Wizardry, Brian likes guitar tone stuff, Fatswichs, Wingsuits, Thats a big number, Corn per month...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Next Episode
423 - Its all about the Boost, baby!
Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for an all-new episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast!
Blake has mahoosive internet lag so the guys are beset by a whole new level of latency - apologies for the 40,000ms of delay you may experience from the Oregon connection. Richard reveals that he is inexperienced in another area of American culture and Brian sighs himself to death whilst the guys attempt to discuss the new JHS Solo boost.
Richard spotted the new fender Kingfish artist model and it causes quite a reaction from the crew and Brian invents the first smellable paint finish for guitar pedals. This causes some in-fighting and Brian brings out the spray multiple times to keep the filthy language down to a minimum while Richard ponders if he is once again in a simulation.
There was some controversy about a Kickstarter funded modular guitar and without any expertise or knowledge of the situation the guys weigh in with unqualified and unsubstantiated nonsense. There are puns, there are bad bits, there are funny bits. No apologies are given. Then Brian tells us about his battle against Mother Nature and it is a story you will not want to miss.
Weird British schools, Multiple awkward silences, Tuna boost, Beavis and Butthead, Modular guitars ...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!
