Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 544 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Christmas Gear of the Year and Brian's last episode...until 2025
Ho Ho Ho - Merry Humbugs! 'Tis the episode before Christmas and the guys gather up some festive cheer for your ears! Brian has bought a new toy and it is ridiculous. Brian also has plans to build a new studio and as a result is going off line for two weeks so we are going to engage in a not-so-secret Santa based experiment with the podcast until we return after the holidays.How confident are you with guitar setup? Richard took a short course and tells us all about it. He has filled a missing and potentially woolly hole in his head and he is very happy about his newfound skills and he has a ridiculous idea. He also asks some foolish questions and gets to check out a lot of very awesome guitars.
The guys then talk about their gear highlights from the past year. There is some obvious bias but also both Brian and Richard pick the same Amplifier. It wouldn't be Christmas without lights and this year they appear to be generally in the skies and mysterious - so the guys talk about their UAP experiences.
Finally we would like to wish all of our listeners a very happy holidays and hope you get to play some awesome music and be with those that you love - thank you so much for your support in 2024 and we'll see you all in 2025!
Brian's spaceship, Richard's special drawing, The Burpatron 2000, UAPs, Christmas traditions...it’s all in this week’s Chasing Tone!

Brian and Richard are back for Episode 543 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Is Rock music ready for the nursing home?
Brian struggles with percentages but it's ok - Richard is telepathic - and they are sadly without 1/3rd of the regular crew as Blake is unwell thanks to those pesky kids! Brian tells us about some strange customs in the Wampler household and Richard thinks he's a comedian. He also has some nice things to say about his missing brother in arms. Brian inspires a new mega business idea.Is Rock music as we know it dead or dying? The guys ponder this because there are worrying signs and Richard thinks the time might be up for this period of wonderful guitar based music. He also tells tales of British school life and Brian is amused. One of Richard's favourite musicians has retired and he reflects on that.
Richard has ordered a new breadboard and a new pedal kit and he is excited as Brian also finds some new toys. The guys talk about their travel guitar arrangements and Richard is impressed with Brian's choice of serenade. Richard is off to Crimson guitars to learn how to break his guitars more and he is pretty excited. Behringer have lit the blue touch-paper with their clone strategy and came out with some fighting talk so the guys chat a little about this.

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 542 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - and this week they have a special guest as the legendary Brent Mason is in the house!
This week we are joined by Nashville legend Brent Mason - one of the world's finest guitar players and one of Brian's guitar heroes - and he takes us on a detailed journey through his career. Brent tells us the utterly insane story about how he got his first break in music after being literally thrust at one of the most famous players of his era when he was a youngster.
Brent then regales us with colorful tales of his early session playing career, how his talent was picked up, and how some of his early encounters with legendary musicians played out. He gives us a fascinating insight into how hard he had to work to get to his big break and has some great insights for all guitar players to learn from. There is also plentiful gear talk too as Brent breaks down how his rig has evolved from the 90's to today.
There are some amusing tales about library music including something that blows Richard and Blake's tiny minds when they discover just how widespread Brent's talents can be found. The guys get deep into Brent's creative process and learn about how he comes up with his solos and Brian makes a confession. Oh, and we might mention the new Wampler ReWired pedal and its topology. Hint - it is not a tubescreamer.
This is an episode not to be missed, and we are very grateful to Brent for spending this time with us - enjoy!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 541 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Brian plays with a session legend and is this the worst guitar ever?
Richard has got valve problems and Brian and Blake offer up solutions. Brian has been jamming with the legendary Brent Mason and tells us how he managed to hold his nerve. Richard has had a schooling in some country music and Blake has a mysterious incident to deal with. Brian has been thinking about true temperament fretboards and the guys invent the worst guitar possible.
Do you think pedal manufacturers are ripping you off? A British YouTuber decided to break down (literally) a JHS fuzz pedal and this in turn lead to a response from Josh Scott which was both educational and a fun pedal industry hangout. Spoiler alert - pedal companies are not ripping you off.
A guitar was released this week that raised more eyebrows than a gallon of Botox - with questionable design aesthetics and a very questionable origin. This leads into a conversation about whether or not imported guitars were about to get a whole lot more expensive. Following on from last week's Tone Bender clone, a new Klon Klone has hit the market and it has caused a lot of controversy itself...The British banana, Brian's butler, Country Music Christmas songs, The return of the king, Pedal hinting...it’s all in this week’s Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 540 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Crazy looper pedals, the Fuzz Bender wars, and triple transistors
There can be no avoiding the recent news from JHS where they announced the re-vamped Ross pedals line is to be no more and the guys attempt to do the subject justice via the medium of mountain dew. Opinions are given. Stupidity occurs. Blake has been posting on threads and appears to break Richard’s brain. Didn’t take much if truth be told.Richard has a problem with a certain guitar company’s branding and cannot keep it to himself. This somehow leads into a conversation about Brian’s physical properties and it gets very weird for a hot minute. Richard treats us to some switch based ASMR thanks to our friend Sean from Gunstreet wiring and frustrates Brian with his silly accent.
The recent passing of Vic Flick has got the guys looking into fuzz schematics and Brian looks a bit onto the design of the Tone bender and the Maestro FZ-1 which somehow involves Terry and Debra. Meanwhile Matthews Effects have released an awesome looking pedal that Blake has desires on and Brian loves the LED rings. The guys then talk about one of the smallest pedals ever.

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 539 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Hello Kitty, the ground-breaking Wampler Catacombs, and how guitars work!
Richard has made a rookie error and ended up buying a new guitar and tells the guys all about it while Brian thinks of a new knock off product he can release. There is some excitement in the old country as the British King of Fuzz has finally figured out how guitars work thanks to friend of the show. He has also got a custom wiring harness from the amazing Gun Street Wiring and is very excited.
Wampler released their latest DSP based pedal, the Catacombs, and so Brian and Richard talk about the 2 year+ development process, the science, and the mean things the people of YouTube have said. Richard made a dad joke and explains how the new Syntax switcher was made to be “Brian proof”. In order to get the exacting reverb sounds Brian wanted the team at Wampler had to enter new territory by reverse engineering the sound of impulse response models and Brian is very happy with the results.
The worst dating site ever is unveiled and there were some queries about a new pedal. Finally the guys weigh in on the debate about Guitar Magazines - they are closing down fast and this may or may not be a good thing for us players...listen to the very end for a MASSIVE pedal hint.

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 538 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Three new Wampler products and look out - it's the Chasing Tone Bandits
There are explosions aplenty in the UK as Richard tells us about one of their many strange customs and Brian reminisces about dangerous childhood toys. Brian also hints that this week he will be releasing multiple products and the guys talk about the new JHS Violet. A fight almost breaks out. Richard bought a guitar and is being an idiot with it and Brian needs a new PAF.
Brian suggests Richard should make his own pickups and the guys come up with a very foolish idea before they talk about the strangest band practice ever. What's the longest you have ever waited in line to see a band? Richard has set a new personal record and also simultaneously invented a new drinking game.
Brian has also been to an amazing gig and he tells us about it and the pedals it involved. Fender have released a number of special new guitars and the guys debate them and consider a fictional heist that somehow involves sandwiches.Kinky pedals, Wide range humbuckers, The Cure, Zach Top, Boss...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 537 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - The Wampler Fearbox, Brian gets kicked off TikTok, and New Guitar Day
Brian is having trouble rolling his Rs and there has been a slew of pedal releases from Keeley, JHS, and apparently also Wampler. But one that caught the collective eye was a reasonably unique compressor / fuzz circuit from a good friend of the show. Richard has had an IT disaster. Brian and Blake turn into British Victorian-era urchins when asked about transistors.
Wampler have released a limited edition (and now sold out) version of the Gearbox - the Fearbox - and the guys chat about it. Blake has been to see some live music and Brian somehow is an expert on this. Brian has been kicked off TikTok and he is not happy about it. Richard visited Andertons an as a result he had a new guitar day and tells us about it and some of the other guitars he tested.
Blake has a new pedal from Warm Audio, has confessed he is hoarding like Smaug, and foreshadows some future releases. It seems that Richard has found his ultimate 80's guitar and is suffering from some first world problems and makes an absurd prediction that angers Blake greatly. The guys then turn the conversation to selling guitars and somehow fish and trainsets are involved.Leaks everywhere, Electric Love, Gallagher World, Silver Sky SE, RG 550, Jaguars vs Jazzmasters, Trumptonshire...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are joined by not one but two very special guests for Episode 536 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Roundtable of Chief Guitar Officers with Scott Heydt and Judd Silver
Scott and Judd have been friends for many years and after both had spent a lot of time working in the music industry they came together to create a show - the Chief Guitar Officer podcast. What on earth possessed them to do that? Madness I say! They have fantastic stories to tell and a great perspective on the music industry and we think you will absolutely love this episode.
The conversation continues into a look at the state of printed and online guitar magazines and the future of music publishing and advertising. This turns into a discussion about Scott's past with Gary Vaynerchuk, and an unusual coincidence that brought all the guys together. This is quite the origin story with at least one common thread - the guitar. David Gilmour may also get a mention.
The interviewers become the interviewed as Judd and Scott ask Richard and Blake about how their love of the guitar properly started and we go deep with some psychology that resonates with everyone. Richard turns the tables and we hear about Scott and Judd's early influences before talking about which guitar is the best - Stratocaster or Telecaster...Egon Spengler, VHS, Crushing It, Rockonteurs, Jim Irsay, Alexi Lalas, Fender Custom Shop...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 535 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Nothing but a good time, how pedals work, and a skateboarding legend
Richard has been breadboarding pedals with some success and he is keen to talk to the guys about his attempts at building a modified LPB1 booster pedal. Blake struggles to stay awake. Brian talks us through his modification and talks a little bit about this classic boost circuit and this turns into a little bit of a primer for guitar effects in general.
Blake has been roleplaying and it takes the guys buy surprise so they go off on a tangent into the world of robots before Brian tells us of his gaming tactics. Richard insults him before they discuss a documentary about 1980s hair metal that involves ridiculous meat based antics. He also met one of his heroes and saw some live music which wasn't related to Pink Floyd and asks the question - who is the greatest Female Telecaster player of all time?
SNL made a sketch about Oasis and it did not go down well. Meanwhile the guys have been lusting over the Greg Koch "Koch Ness Monster" pedalboard and Brian finds inspiration from Robert Keeley. This flows smoothly into a conversation about compressor pedals, feed-forward designs, and the EGO 76. Meanwhile Richard has been blown away by an early pioneer of delay effects.Flossie the sheep, WASP, Tracii Guns, The Picturebooks, The Pretenders, John Martyn, Cher...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 534 of the Chasing Tone - Welcome to the chug spectrum and some major pedal hinting
Brian attempts to immediately cancel Richard as the guys talk about the podcasting life and some recent ill feelings against the podcast world. He has been moderately outraged by a recent thread on Tubescreamers and the guys try not to wind him up further. Blake tests the sound of cardboard. Brian is a defender against misinformation.
Richard has been looking at the history of the Big Muff and is amazed at how many variations there have been. Somehow dubstep is involved. Richard has also been given a fantastic tip from the wizards at Reeves Electro and has some of his own DIY tips. It's also new amp day and there are some major pedal hints.
Has the recent Neural Nano thingummy started a new modeling war? The guys debate this. Fender have also teased some new images and the guys speculate over which color schemes they will announce. Brian is not impressed and Richard has a new strap.Leprechaun squats, Parts tolerances, Wub, Soldano Astro 20, Typefaces...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 533 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Fuzz news, a summit of guitars, and behold - the Quietening
Brian is goading Richard once more and provokes him into an admission about some tickets he has bought. Blake has attachments. Do you ever calibrate your string bends? The guys talk about how they practice perfect bends. A feller smashed a guitar with a hammer and it made the news. Richard is upset that he didn't get invited to the party.
There's a new Phil X pedal out, the PX0, and the guys check it out and Blake gets frisky before Richard makes various strange claims. The guys also reflect on the recent passing of Kris Kristofferson and what it means not just to country music, but to the world of entertainment on the whole.
The British King of Fuzz has been active and has breadboarded a new pedal. He made a number of noob errors and Brian had to help him whilst stifling his laughter. All is not lost, he finally created an awesome pedal, but there were many hiccups along the way.Jim Indiana, Whammy bar tips, Ryan Burke, The Cure, Guitar Summit, Bensonfest, the anti-booster..it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 532 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - The Supreme Wah and the Hans Zimmer shimmer
Richard and Brian indulge in a ridiculous trade off of barely coded statements as a certain guitarist is banned from being mentioned. Blake ignores them roundly and tells us about his new vintage guitar purchase and Brian admits that he is finally beginning to love his Stratocaster...sorta. He has also been compared to someone and that has disturbed him but not as much as learning about UK licensing laws.
Do you have any signature guitar moves you bust out on stage? The guys discuss how this is never a good idea at their age and Brian has never heard of a famous band. Meanwhile Keeley have launched an interesting new pedal which the guys love and Brian has got the new Neural Nano Cortex. He tells us all about how much he has - or hasn't - played it.
Brian has some photography tips for anyone planning on doing something really silly with a pedal. We also deal with a number of listener questions including what the most embarrassing moment at a gig was, whether we will make a mini EGO 76, and will we make an analog uni-vibe? Oh, and I suppose we might hear something about a dress rehearsal Richard went to...Squier, Larry David, Level 42, Octa Psi, George Lynch ...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 531 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Tube based Pedals, Tuna Fuzz, and On-stage Punch ups
We have a rare musical treat as Brian and Blake serenade our listeners with a country ode to one of Brian's most favorite substances in the world...no not that one...or that one. He got a flat tire and Richard is shocked at his lack of preparation and surprised by a pedalboard with wheels. Richard has also received a brand new pedal and he is very excited by it despite is gargantuan size.Richard will be going to the ball! Yes - there is Gilmour news - he can’t contain himself or his vast knowledge of American geography. Brian destroys all his hopes and dreams. Deservedly so too. The guys got a sneak peak at the new Neural DSP Nano Cortex Modeler and chat about it and also the new update to the baby Line 6 pedal. There is unlimited confusion.
Fender have released a new amplifier in conjunction with Jack White and the guys check it out and are suitably impressed. Would you buy an extended warranty for your gear? The chaps discuss a new concept that Fender seem to be playing with and Brian makes an announcement. There was quite a well covered dispute on stage this week as the members of Janes Addiction threw punches so we close with a brief look at that.

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 530 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Brian checks in with uncle Brad and is this the ultimate portable practice rig?
Brian is in cowboy mode and Blake tells us about his cattle rustling days. Brian tells us about how someone he know likes to try and wrestle sedentary bovine creatures - yes you read that correct. Richard is suspicious. Richard also has views about the new David Gilmour Album, Luck and Strange, and he can't wait to tell us. Brian is not thrilled. But it leads onto an interesting conversation about acrobatics vs feel in guitar playing.
There was other big news in the music world with the re-emergence of Linkin Park and the guys have a lot of views about this - especially Blake who grew up on their music - and it spins into an interesting and candid conversation about music in general. Somehow the Doors are involved too. The Wampler Tumnus got a little acclaim in a publication and the guys debate this and the mechanics of commercial songwriting.
Richard has tales of woe and, err, stagnant Guinness and regales us with his germ ridden views and does not invent anything at all. Brian takes an important call from a certain legend of the guitar and goes to an intimate concert and eats world beating hot fudge cake. Finally there is some massive gear news - and Richard is excited.

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 529 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - A legendary Les Paul and the Circle of Wahs
We open up with an international weather report from the guys and Brian tells us about his mini vacation that saw him make a wild return to nature. Kinda. The big news across the pond is all about Oasis (still) and their ticket prices so the guys debate the policy of surge ticket pricing and supply and demand.
Do you have an upper limit to how much you would pay for a concert ticket? Blake reached his when he went to see Pantera and Metallica with his kids and he tells us all about it. He has zero regrets. But he did make an interesting observation about the sound dynamics of the venue and breaks it down to the chaps. Brian talks about his home made hearing protection and Blake solicits the views of an audiologist.
MXR have released another signature pedal and this one has magical powers - or so Richard believes - so the guys discuss this and a rather special Flying Vee. Brian is still in love with his Explorer. Richard had band practice and tells us about this and his new pedalboard. He discussed the problems he had with his amp's distortion, his memory, his love of the Gearbox, and his memory.

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 528 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Blake is definitely not mad for it, but Brian is all about the Even Flow
Brian is feeling somewhat civilized and Richard has a magical revelation. He is an idiot though. Brian has been to see one of his favorite bands and tells the guys all about it and how he managed to get tickets to the hottest show in town. He has some odd observations that seem to revolve around hygiene.
Richard tries to lay some major music news on Blake and it goes down like a lead balloon so he doubles down on the Brit Pop history. This leads him to ruminate over old age, concert going habits, and he gives away some of Brian’s driving secrets. Meanwhile, Blake tells us about the hot sauces he has put in his eyes and Brian gets Rockunized.
The guys then get into a very bizarre conversation about wearable guitar gear and I apologize in advance if you feel your IQ being dragged down by this. Origin Effects have just release a new Bluesbreaker pedal and Blake is very excited by it. Richard has been digging into Fender finishes and rarer models and he found a bargain so tells us all about it...
Salt licks, The Necromantic Doors, Cockney slurs, Pimping Golf buggies, Transdimensional vehicles...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 527 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - The most important electric guitar performance ever? Also New Guitar Day!
Brian teases a "special private show" and Richard discovers something about his American brethren and it has upset him - but then a lot has this week. More importantly Brian has a brand new guitar! He tells us all about it and some of the unexpected features it has and the guys notice a special twinkle in Brian's eye. Brian also said something outrageous about a classic Fender design and Richard is disturbed.
On the 55th anniversary of the Woodstock festival, Richard got a chance to re-watch that infamous Jimi Hendrix performance, and he has views which the guys debate. He also managed to learn something from the master of the Stratocaster and is very proud of himself. Brian also has learned something new - about Pink Floyd - and admits to being a foolish individual and there is talk of school-day shenanigans. Blake has issues.
Blake has a very special Metalzone and he tells us all about it and the guys talk about pedal naming schema before getting defeated by a classic pedal name. Brian is expanding his barn and Richard has a new pedal which he thinks is one of the most fun pedals ever. Do fancy IEC cables make a difference to your amps tone? This was a question asked on the tone group so the guys dig in.Giant Cases, Clown Shoes, Jimi Hendrix, Vintage guitar stickers, Chapman Guitars, Randall Smith...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are joined by Gabe Dalporto, the CEO of Guitar Center for Episode 526 of the Chasing Tone Podcast
This week the guys have an exclusive episode for you with a very special guest - Gabe Dalporto. He is the new CEO at Guitar Center and he has probably seen more amazing string, valve, and transistor based toys than most of us can dream of. Gabe's story about his musical family roots, his rather excellent first guitar, and his passion for music is a great story you will want to listen to.
Gabe tells us about his music tastes, his writing, and his gigging experiences before he reveals that he is in fact a complete gear nut just like all of us! This turns into a fascinating insight into how Gabe has not just analysed the business he runs, but has lived and breathed Guitar Center since he joined it, and created a vision for a ground up rejuvenation of this retail behemoth.
We get a very candid and thoughtful appraisal of the business model of Guitar Center to date and then a glimpse of where it is going and how giant pedalboards will play a role. If you are interested in the music instrument business, heck if you are interested in musical instruments full stop, then this episode does not disappoint. Brian and Blake have some good ideas. Richard makes another Gilmour mistake when he mixes up one guitar with another.Fender, Gibson, PRS, 90lbs of amplification, Nuclear engineering, Disneyland for musicians, No Stairway Allowed...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!
