  • 523 - A new pedal and we broke the internet again...
    Jul 24 2024

    Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 523 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - A new pedal and we broke the internet again...

    Picture the scene. It is a beautiful summer Tuesday night. The guys are chatting away merrily about a load of random nonsense. Richard is congratulating himself about the launch of the new Wampler website. Brian was farming goats. Blake was, well - the less said about that, the better. Little did Richard realise that 24 hours later his world would be shattered by crazy demand for Wampler's latest release...

    But that is now and this was then, and we welcome Blake back to the fold from his travels and he tells us about how he jumped off a bridge. Richard has a brand new Internet. Brian does not have a brand new guitar. But he has a new pedal out, and he and Richard discuss it, but neither realise the chaos that was to come...

    If you own multiple guitars, have you ever played them all in one sitting? The guys chat about what this does for you. Blake has played a bender equipped Tele and tells us all about it. Meanwhile Richard is hankering after some fancy analog effects and he tries to convince Brian with some help from Blake.

    Germanium madness, Al Gore Rhythm, Time travelling, Pedal beer, Foolish predictions...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

  • 522 - Non Fungible Tones with Ryan Burke from 60 Cycle Hum!
    Jul 18 2024

    Brian and Richard are joined by Ryan Burke for Episode 522 of the Chasing Tone Podcast

    Blake is out of town on string business so the guys are joined by Ryan Burke of 60 Cycle hum and his haunted mannequin...yes, you read that correct. This naturally means there is some offset guitar insight - 'offsight' if you will - and Ryan has great advice for anyone weighing up their options.

    Do you collect pedals as an investment? The guys chat about the ramifications of where the collectable pedal market is going and then of course try to accurately predict the future and along the way they invent a new form of musical currency. Richard has a pedal related confession to make and Brian is thinking about Germanium hearing aids.

    Ryan has a box full of Afford-a-board pedals and tells us about some of the fun discoveries he has made. Somehow this transitions into a conversation about soccer, surfing, and then of course, surf music and skateboarding! This is a very funny episode despite some lag issues so get your laughing gear on!

    Noodle and flutter, Player II Fenders, Tone Detective, Rabbit Trails, The PRS of waves...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

  • 521 - Brian invents the greatest guitar app ever and it's all Greek to me...
    Jul 10 2024

    Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 521 of the Chasing Tone Podcast

    Announcement: We are now in real time! We have decided to try and record the show and put it out the same week so we can be on the cutting edge of breaking news - hang on to your hats.

    Richard has been away on his vacation and has some tales to tell, but starts off with a debate about vinyl collecting...Meanwhile Brian has been on a live-stream with the intellectual giants behind Two notes and Neural Amp Modeler. He has a good case from why Amp Modeling could be a great tool for all gigging musicians.

    Brian has a brilliant business idea based on his compressor woes and shares his genius ideas with us all. Meanwhile Fender have launched their new Player II range of guitars and our good buddy Travis Feaster got to be part of the launch so we talk about that before looking at some more band practice woes.

    Blake ducks out early because apparently he like his job, so Brian and Richard fumble on through the subjects...and Brian becomes audibly aroused at a new Gibson special edition. This turns into a discussion about how good quality guitar gear is so much more affordable these days and then Richard inadvertently gives Brian a new idea and immediately regrets it. Brian then invents the greatest app ever.

    The Grecian toe, Crab Amps, Chord dis-remembrance, Gorilla amps, Pedalboard choices, Power supply knowledge...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

    Thanks to all our supporters - you are awesome! Except that one guy. Only kidding - just wanted to see if anyone read this bit...

Entertaining and Insightful

if you're looking for something completely different to distract you from your daily pandemic drudgery, this is it. The hosts provide interesting historical insights to both gear and music. Love the unscripted, random discussions. Fun!
