Chasing Tone - Guitar Podcast About Gear, Effects, Amps and Tone
Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 634 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Marcus King melting faces, the great acoustic guitar rabbit hole, and Ola Englund's Pedalhead previewBrian's hair may have entered a new era, so naturally the guys workshop his new mullet before anyone's allowed near a guitar. Once they get there, Richard is buzzing about Atomic Habitz at the Newport Jazz Festival - how could you not love Marcus King ripping through Funkadelic's "Red Hot Mama?" Turns out the kids really are gonna be alright. Then it's down the acoustic rabbit hole: jangly Taylors, warm Gibsons, giant SJ-200s, and why buying an acoustic is a far more personal affair than grabbing a Strat online - though Richard's happy with his Acoustasonic Jazzmaster for now. His new, rockier, punkier band has also left him with an actual blister on his picking finger from blasting Green Day's "Basket Case" at 170-plus BPM, which of course means a proper chat about Helter Skelter, Ringo's blisters, and whether that little band from the UK ever amounted to much.Gear-wise, Ola Englund's tasty preview of the Pedalhead has everyone chomping at the bit, the new ToneX board gets a bigger screen, and there is Bullshine talk. Richard also somehow bends his high E clean over the pickup, and the eternal "how many guitars do you take to a gig" debate rages on. Brian gives us his signature hotdog eating impersonation. The demented Tele, your custard is our pudding, 50p Oreos, Stevie Wonder, Shotguns fired...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!We are on Patreon now too!Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/chasingtonepodcast)Courses and DIY mods:https://www.bluesguitarmethod.comhttps://www.betterguitartone.comhttps://www.wamplerdiy.comhttps://www.guitarpedalcourse.comCheck out Oliver Effects:https://oliverfx.co.ukYoutube:https://www.youtube.com/@chasingtonepodcastFind us at:https://www.wamplerpedals.com/https://www.instagram.com/WamplerPedals/https://www.facebook.com/groups/wamplerfanpage/Support the show

In this episode of Bad Boys of Bankruptcy, host Judge Gunn talks with North Carolina attorney John C. Bircher, III, who served as a Chapter 7 trustee in the bankruptcy case of Gregory Sipe. Mr. Sipe filed a Chapter 7 bankruptcy case in the Eastern District of North Carolina in 2010, and listed on his schedules “several” collectible guitars that Mr. Sipe attested were worth a total of $50,000, but that were currently pawned and would require $40,000 to redeem from the pawn shop, so Mr. Sipe scheduled their value as $10,000. John describes the efforts he and some creditor's attorneys went through to uncover the truth about the debtor's guitar collection, which would up containing in excess of 360 guitars, which John liquidated for the benefit of the estate, netting nearly $900,000 at auction. One guitar, a Gibson Jimmy Page #7 signed guitar, sold for $22,000. John tells the story about driving to the debtor's home in Chesapeake, Virginia in a truck with his auctioneer to find out the true scope of the debtor's guitar collection, which ultimately required the auctioneer to send up two more trucks and two enclosed 24 foot trailers to seize the nearly 400 guitars which were stored in the debtor's two-car garage, which had been converted to a climate-controlled storage facility. The debtor's extensive collection included numerous autographed and exclusive guitars, including a custom-made Gibson Les Paul that the debtor had made which contained numerous ticket stubs to the concerts the debtor had previously attended embedded under transparent acrylic finishing on the body of the guitar and mother of pearl inlays on the fretboard. John's efforts in liquidating the guitars allowed him to make a 43% distribution to unsecured creditors in the case. The debtor was later indicted for five counts of bankruptcy fraud, and ultimately pled guilty to a single count of falsifying records in bankruptcy. He was sentenced to 3 years of probation, 200 hours of community service, and restitution for $5,900.

Es gibt so Bücher, da quält man sich. Ob man das muss, gerade als freier, unbezahlter Rezensent, aber auch als schnöder Leser von Büchern, es ist ein ewiger Streit. Ein Streit, in dem Anzahl und Vehemenz bejahender Argumente reziprok mit dem Alter des Argumentierenden korrelieren. Ok, man kann auch formulieren: Je näher man dem Grabe ist, desto weniger ist man geneigt, einen Autor langsam zur Sache kommen zu lassen. Aber das klingt grausam, oberflächlich, und Anne Findeisen setzt gerade zum “OK Boomer” an.Und es ist tatsächlich ungerecht dem Autor gegenüber, einschränkend: sobald man ihm ein Niveau zugesteht oberhalb des seit ein paar Jahren aufgrund irgendeines Marketingkurses so heftig promoteten “Deutschen Krimis mit Lokalkolorit”, ein Genre, in dem arbeitslose Redakteure von regionalen Tageblättern ihr Gehalt aufbessern, indem sie uns weiß machen wollen, dass es in Berlin-Marzahn fast genauso zur Sache ginge wie in Chicago Southside.Gehen wir also von den guten Autoren aus.Ein Autor schreibt auf leerem Blatt eine Story, und je ferner sie von der Lebenswirklichkeit des Lesers entfernt ist, desto größer des Autor-Dilemma: Erklärt er mit Begriffen, die dem Leser nahe sind, die ferne Seltsamkeit seiner Phantasie, oder lässt er es den Leser selbst herausfinden? Ersteres vergrößert die Chance auf die Bahnhofsbuchhandlung und erhöht die Anzahl der Bücher, die der Leser bis zum Grabgang, siehe oben, lesen kann, enorm, aber es ist auch potentiell langweilig, bricht die Magie, nicht zu reden von der künstlerischen Integrität des Auteur.Kann man also Regeln finden, die man anwenden kann, wenn man auf Seite 10 eines Buches noch kein Wort verstanden hat?Statt theoretisch zu salbadern, greifen wir in den Fundus der aktuellen Falschgoldschen Buchliste “in progress”. Der Punkt, dass darunter ein Buch aus Papier ist, so zum Blättern, mit Rascheln und so, macht deutlich, dass wir hier nicht von anekdotenhafter Beweisführung, sondern regelrecht von Empirie reden können, so alt ist der Rezensent, so viele Bücher las er schon. Dem Zuhörer kommen die Tränen.Das papierne Buch ist dunkelgrün, ein Paperback, und öffnet sich automatisch auf Seite 374/375 - Ein Eselsohr! Wenn man genau hinschaut, sieht man, dass der Papierschnitt, also die Außenseite des geschlossenen Buches, von dieser Stelle an bis zur Seite 1014 glatt ist, die Seiten davor uneben. Denn ich habe Ulysses von James Joyce schon so oft angefangen, und bin so oft nur bis zur Hälfte gekommen, dass ich einmal den Traum hatte, dass der Quizmaster unseres monatlichen Kneipenquiz die Frage stellt, welches Buch folgendermaßen beginnt:Erste Seite UlyssesSTATTLICH UND FEIST erschien Buck Mulligan am Treppenaustritt, ein Seifenbecken in Händen, auf dem gekreuzt ein Spiegel und ein Rasiermesser lagen. Ein gelber Schlafrock mit offenem Gürtel bauschte sich leicht hinter ihm in der milden Morgenluft. Er hielt das Becken in die Höhe und intonierte: “Introibo ad altare Dei.”Woraufhin ich meinem Kollegen beruhigend zuzwinkere “Hab ich”. Im Sinne von “die Antwort”, aber auf keinen Fall “verstanden”. Denn jetzt, auf Seite 374 sitzt Leopold Bloom immer noch am 16.6.1904 und frühstückt Leber. Sehr sympathisch, und das mit dem Frühstück ist nur ein educated guess, ein Drittel im Buch, das berühmterweise einen Tag im Leben eines Anzeigenverkäufers in Dublin beschreibt, das muss noch Frühstück sein.Ach, ich lese mal kurz rein..Dreißig Minuten später habe ich noch keine Ahnung, ob es Frühstück, Brunch oder Mittag ist, aber mehr als eine davon, warum ich das Buch immer wieder beginne: Es ist ein Rätsellabyrinth. Zusammengehalten von der Einfachheit der Prämisse: Ein Mann, ein Tag, eine Stadt, und damit unkompliziert reinzukommen, ist es fast unmöglich, wieder rauszufinden: So viele Fragen gestellt in bildlichster Sprache, man sieht sie vor sich, die verrückten Dubliner, immer etwas schmuddlig, nie unter 3,8 im Turm und dennoch gebildet, klug und rätselhaft. Wenn man weiß, dass man etwas nie ganz verstehen wird, befreit das ungemein, und wenn man weiß, dass das Literaturprofessoren so geht, nicht zu reden von Übersetzern und Rezensenten, ist das ein Argument, das Buch immer wieder zu beginnen, ohne das Ziel, es jemals zu beenden.Ein weiteres Beispiel, ein ganz anderes: Am 20.1. diesen Jahres 2020 kam der neue William Gibson raus, “Agency”, und der Vorbestellen-Knopf war schon halb gedrückt, als ich aus den Augenwinkeln das Cover sah, mh.. erinnert an etwas, und auch die “Kunden kauften sonst noch”-Zeile des bösen Onlinebuchhändlers erinnerte an Bekanntes. Genauer an Gibsons 2014er Roman “Peripherie” und daran, dass ich trotz heftigem Fanboyseins das Buch nicht nur nicht zu Ende gelesen habe, nein, dass ich kaum über Seite 30 hinweggekommen war. Was zumindest für diesen Rezensenten, der eine Buchserie von vorn bis hinten lesen muss, ohne Lücken, es unmöglich macht, den neuen Gibson zu lesen, ohne den alten Gibson gelesen zu haben. Anne Findeisen murmelt übrigens gerade wieder “Ok Boomer”, bekanntermaßen kann sie Simon Beckets David-Hunter-Serie Buch 6 lesen und Buch 5 mal eben so locker überspringen. Sie ist ein Monster.Ich bin keines, also holte ich mir “Peripherie” von William Gibson auf den E-Reader und kann berichten, ich bin sechs Jahre älter, nicht weiser. William Gibson ist ein allgemein anerkannter Visionär und Erfinder des allgegenwärtigen Begriffes “Cyberspace”, der, wie sich das gehört für unsere oberflächliche Zeit, mit dem “Cyberspace” in Gibsons Newromancer nichts, aber auch gar nichts gemein hat. Daraus scheint mir Gibson sein Lehren gezogen zu haben und erklärt nun einfach gar nichts mehr. Wir springen aus dem Wohnwagen eines Kriegsveteranen in ein Computerspiel, Fragezeichen, gespielt mit einem faltbaren, Fragezeichen, Handy als Controller und dargestellt auf mehreren, Fragezeichen, Displays, physischen, Fragezeichen. Eine Welt aus Fragezeichen, aber noch hat Gibson drei Bücher minus 30 Seiten, von denen eines noch nicht mal geschrieben ist, Zeit, uns zu erklären, wie wir bald leben werden, und schon jetzt spüre ich, dass er ziemlich weit daneben liegen wird, denn schon lange ist es nicht mehr möglich, ein Buch in der nahen Zukunft anzusiedeln, ohne von dieser bei Veröffentlichung überholt zu werden. Aber William Gibson muss gelesen werden, er ist Kanon, und kein Weg führt an der Tatsache vorbei, dass es aktuell keinen genaueren Beobachter unserer gegenwärtigen Zukunft gibt. Ich ignoriere also zunächst die Fragezeichen und werde mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit in Kürze hier an dieser Stelle berichten können, ob Gibson recht hat, ob Periphery und Agency uns helfen, uns zu verstehen.Sich zu verstehen, ist das Hauptproblem des titelgebenden Haupthelden in einem Buch, welches kaum diametraler sein könnte als die bisher angesprochenen “schwer lesbaren” Werke. “The Death and Life of Schneider Wrack” ist kein Bestseller, es spielt weder an einem Tag noch in naher Zukunft. Es ist ein Roman in einer fremden und seltsamen Welt. Geschrieben wurde er von Nate Crowley, einem Briten, den mein Lieblings-Online-Computerspielmagazin mit Namen “Rock, Paper, Shotgun” letztes Jahr eingestellt hat. Ja, Herr Falschgold liest nicht nur seit 25 Jahren Ulysses, sondern auch Computerspielmagazine. Clearly the most interesting man in the world. Gleich nach Nate Crowley muss er jedoch neidlos anerkennen. Nicht nur hat er, wie Herr Falschgold, eine Vorliebe für eine Nische im Computerspielkosmos, in der sich Games an ein Publikum wenden, das nicht reaktionsschnell das fünfhundertachtzigste x-beliebige Monster zu Brei ballern will, sondern stattdessen, das Kinn in die Hand gestützt, stundenlang virtuellen Figuren zuschaut, wie sie nur geringst von ihrem ihnen zuschauenden Gott beeinflusst ihrem Leben nachgehen. Für fantasielose Träumer von Eigentumswohnung und Minivan sind das die Sims, in dem sich realistische 3d-Instagrammodels in realistischen Mietwohnungen realistisch langweilen, für milde fantasiebegabte das aktuelle Lieblingsgame des Rezensenten namens “Rimworld”, in dem drei zufällige und meist ziemlich gestörte Raumfahrer auf einem Planeten stranden und versuchen, ohne dem Kannibalismus zu verfallen, von diesem wieder wegzukommen, dargestellt in der Draufsicht von liebevoll gezeichneten kleinen Pixelmenschen in einer Welt voller Gefahren. Nate Crowley jedoch machte auf sich aufmerksam durch das, was er aus dem Spielen des Programmes “Dwarf Fortress”, also “Zwergenburg”, machte. Ein Spiel, in dem die Personen nicht in 3d gezeigt werden oder pixelsüß animiert sind, sondern einfach nur verschiedenfarbige Buchstaben auf einem schwarzen Bildschirm, die sich blinkend von A nach B bewegen und deren Tun und Sein in Statistiken und gelegentlichen Beschreibungen aufgezeigt wird. Klingt trocken, aber mit dem fantasievollen Kopf eines Nate Crowley wurde daraus eine 23-Folgen-Fortsetzungsstory über “The Basement of Curiosity”, in dem Nate seine alphanumerischen Zwerge die wildesten, lustigsten Abenteuer bestehen lässt und darüber in solch schillernden Farben berichtete, als ginge es um den neuesten photorealistischen Blockbuster unter den Spielen und nicht um eine Textwüste in Grün auf Schwarz. Dazu hat Nate Crowley einen Twitteraccount, auf dem er Fotos seines Terrarium/Aquarium zeigt, welches statt mit den üblichen Fischen und Fröschen komplett mit Krabben, Langusten und ähnlich vielbeinigem Krustengetier bewohnt wird.Wenn man solcherlei seltsames Hobby mit derlei ausschweifender Phantasie kombiniert, muss ein Roman rauskommen. 2017 war es soweit, und es ist ein Trip. Unser Hauptheld Schneider Wrack war gerade noch Bibliothekar in einer postapokalyptischen Hafenstadt und erwacht auf einmal auf.. einem Schiff? Er weiß es nicht. Er weiß so gut wie gar nichts mehr. Er weiß noch nicht mal, ob er lebt. Er bewegt sich, er sieht und fühlt, aber.. er atmet schon mal nicht. Zumindest muss er es nicht. Um ihn herum sind ein paar hundert Menschen, die einen riesigen Wal mit Äxten und Messern traktieren und das rausgehackte Fleisch in Wagons verladen. Das Ganze passiert auf hoher See, so viel scheint klar, aber das Schiff ist so groß, dass er nicht sieht, wo es beginnt und endet. Auch sagt keiner ein Wort, zunächst noch nicht mal er selbst. Es scheint sich niemand um ihn zu kümmern, also beginnt er, auf dem Schiff zu wandern, und sieht die seltsamsten Dinge. Aufseher mit zugewachsenen Mündern, als Wachtiere begleiten sie Haie auf metallenen Beinen. Die Arbeiter haben alle Verletzungen, die auf einen gewaltsamen Tod hindeuten - und doch bewegen sie sich wie.. Zombies! In einer abgelegenen Halle finden sich in eine Ecke gestapelt so kaputte Exemplare, dass sie nicht mehr zur Arbeit zu gebrauchen sind, aber, Horror, sie bewegen sich noch. Auf Händen, so noch welche dran sind, oder sie schauen verwirrt von links nach rechts, wenn der Kopf noch dran ist, der Rest aber schon ab. Es ist eine Freakshow und nichts für schwache Gemüter. Es ist einem permanent ein bisschen schlecht. Es wimmelt von Worten, die ich nicht kenne und Wikipedia auch nicht, Fischarten vermutet man, halb-lateinisch klingend, aber auch Namen von Orten und Städten, bei denen man ob der Tatsache, dass sie so klingen, als müsste man sie kennen, Google Maps aber nichts findet, noch verwirrter ist als unser Hauptheld Schneider Wrack.Endgültig fertig macht Schneider, einige Seiten im Buch, dass er mit niemandem kommunizieren kann, sich niemand um ihn kümmert. Bis er eine Frau mit einem Loch in der Brust trifft, typische Säbelwunde, die leise vor sich hin jammert. Er tauft sie Moana und spricht leise auf sie ein. Bis sie ihm antwortet..Nate Crowley hat einen der abgefahrensten Romane in einer der abgefahrensten Settings ever geschrieben - und ich habe jetzt schon fünf Bücher von Jasper Fforde gelesen, wir erinnern uns, die Detektivin Thursday Next, die in Büchern lebt. Wir müssen unser Vorstellungsvermögen anpassen, alles ist größer als man denkt, und dann noch ein Stück. Wale so groß wie Fußballfelder werden von Kraken gefressen, so groß wie kleine Ostseeinseln. Wir bereisen den Amazonas und bemerken als Leser spätestens dann, warum Nate Crowley dazu neigt, deutsche Worte einzubauen, man sieht die Inspiration zum Buch in dem fiktiven Werk, welches Schneider Wrack, unser Protagonist, auf einmal im Körper einer Krabbe, fragt nicht, liest, es ist der Bericht einer Amazonasexpedition wie geschrieben von Alexander von Humboldt. Wir können das Buch, obwohl lange nicht explizit geschrieben, nur als Parabel auf eine Ökokatastrophe lesen und werden dazu mit moralischen Dilemmata konfrontiert - wann ist man tot und wann ist man so richtig tot? Und was passiert, wenn dann künstliche Intelligenz ins Spiel kommt. All das ist kaum zu greifen durch bestsellergewohntes eiliges Lesen. Man muss sich Zeit nehmen, man muss das Buch weglegen, schon weil einem manchmal ein bisschen übel ist. Aber man wird es immer wieder aufnehmen, man will mehr wissen von dieser fremden und seltsamen Welt des Schneider Wrack und Nate Crowley.Und das ist am Ende das Kriterium für jedes “schwere Buch”. Will man mehr wissen? Und da ist es egal, ob man mehr wissen will, weil man kaum etwas versteht, wie bei Joyces Ulysses, ob man mehr wissen will, weil man weiß, dass der Autor viel zu sagen hat, wie bei jedem Roman von Will Gibson, oder weil man einfach wissen will, ob sich Moana und Schneider, zu Beginn des Romans Zombies und zur Hälfte der eine eine Krabbe und die Andere ein Kampfroboter, am Ende doch bekommen und warum die Welt des Nate Crowley so abgefuckt ist, wie sie ist.Ja, Bücher sind manchmal schwer, inhaltlich, sprachlich, emotional, aber wir haben ein Leben Zeit, oder um es mit James Joyce zu sagen: “„Der längste Umweg ist der kürzeste nach Hause.“ - und hätte ich den Ulysses zu Ende gelesen, hätte ich vielleicht ein wirklich passendes Zitat gefunden.

You put down a bowl of soft food, and moments later, you hear the jingle of her collar. Here she comes! First, she pauses at the conservatory door and watches you for a while. You eagerly point at the wonderfully fresh food, enticing her to come in and eat. She turns away to look out into her domain, our back garden. Eventually, she strolls over - in her own time. Of course, whether she's ready for her lunch, when she eats, or indeed, where she eats, is all her own choice.

Don't forget to like, subscribe and leave us a comment! The three of us finally get into something that's been on the calendar for a while: what actually makes a good Les Paul. Zach brings out all his Les Pauls, Rhett has his R9, and Addison shows off the 2007 Studio Faded he's had since he was 15. We talk about what to listen and feel for when you're shopping — weight, acoustic resonance, how the D and G strings behave, and why the nut is almost always the reason your Les Paul won't stay in tune. Plus PAF pickup obsession, the case for unpotted pickups, top wrapping, tone woods, and why the inconsistency of Gibsons is a feature, not a bug. Hot take this week from Nicholas: flame tops and figured maple are ugly, and matching headstocks make a guitar look cheap. We're split.

Mark Morton joins the show today, and we somehow manage to talk about the gravitational pull of the electric guitar, the operational realities of a world-class metal band, parenting, vintage Gibsons, noise gates, and New York pizza without anyone needing a liability waiver. Mark gets into the early magic of the guitar, back when the instrument didn't just look cool, it felt like a secret door. A wooden plank with wires, knobs, and just enough electricity to rearrange a kid's entire personality. From there, we talk about the family support that helped him chase that feeling, and how that same idea now shapes the way he supports his own kids as they find their own creative obsessions. We also dig into the less glamorous, more interesting machinery behind one of metal's most popular acts. Touring, family, business calls, merch approvals, stage production, the whole industrial riff-farm. The rock and roll fantasy is still in there somewhere, wearing sunglasses indoors, but these days it has a calendar invite and probably needs to approve a hoodie sample. And yes, there is plenty of guitar talk. Mark breaks down his move to Gibson, the creation of his signature Les Paul, his love of vintage instruments, the L.o.G writing process, and why some guitars feel alive while others just sit there like expensive furniture with strings.

In this episode, former Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Scott Karl traces his path from Carlsbad standout to big league starter to financial advisor. He swaps stories with Jeff about Bandon Dunes and his move from California to Lake Norman, then dives into his career, getting a last-minute shot after the '94 strike, surviving as a finesse pitcher in a power era, facing legends like Randy Johnson, Greg Maddux, and Sammy Sosa, and taking the mound during the 1998 home run chase. Scott shares how he lost roughly 70% of his portfolio in the dot-com bust while still playing, what it taught him about risk and advisors, and how it pushed him into wealth management. He explains why many athletes blow through life-changing money, how he builds portfolios with buffered ETFs, structured notes, and private credit, and how he manages expectations around upside, downside, and liquidity. The conversation widens to NIL, parents effectively betting travel-ball costs on scholarships, and the risk of turning college sports into a money race. Scott also talks about raising two Division I volleyball players, the mental side of high performance, and how those lessons carry into investing, before closing with his favorite baseball cities and parks, from Wrigley day games to the old Jake in Cleveland and nostalgic nights at Dodger Stadium.

Some kids take apart toys. Jay Sasseen popped the backplate on a red Squier and never looked back. That curiosity turned into Parottdice Guitars, a Multnomah Village spotwhere weird gear and rad people hang out. We talk about the "gear flipping hustle" that became a real-deal guitar shop with a simple creed that actually works: fix things well, price things fair, remember names. Then we go treasure hunting. Melody Makers that sing, MIJ Fenders that convert haters, Firebrand oddballs, 80s Gibsons that rip, a Hondo rifle-shaped contraption with a trigger pickup selector, and Blake's rat-rod EB-0 turned Bass VI that should not work but does.

Urban travels with a friendly crew of vintage guitars, so there was much to see and play. In fact, so much that they ran out of time after getting through the axes! Later, Bohli and Co. met up with Urban tech Chris Miller to wrap their heads around the rest of the straightforward pedal-free rig he's rockin' this summer. Last year, Urban released High, his 12th studio record, so you'll be sure to catch those tunes and more in his extensive jam-friendly sets. Here's a look at what Keith is bringing with him to stages across the U.S., including a prototype signature PRS to vintage Gibsons and a pair of heavy-lifting Marshalls.0:00 - Joe Glaser & D'Addario0:15 - Keith Urban Playing Intro0:35 - Subscribe to Rig Rundowns!0:49 - John Bohlinger Intro1:04 - PRS Keith Urban Prototype3:51 - 1989 Fender Custom 40th Anniversary Telecaster "Clarence"4:29 - PRS Custom with Wooden Truss Rod7:50 - 1964 Fender Strat8:56 - No Distortion Pedals -- Using Marshall Super Lead for Gain9:38 - Novo Solus10:45 - 1972 Fender Mustang Bass12:29 - 1964 Gibson SG Junior14:21 - 1952 Gibson Les Paul16:10 - Taking Vintage Guitars on the Road17:44 - Maton Mini Maton Diesel EMD619:37 - Keith Urban & D'Addario20:07 - Keith Urban Tech Chris Miller Intro20:36 - Keith Urban's Picks & Strings24:25 - Late 1970s Marshall JMP Super Leads 100W27:03 - 1970s Marshall 4x12 with Celestion G12H-150 Redback Speakers29:05 - Acoustic Sciences Corporation Speaker Baffles (from Pete Townsend)32:46 - Powering Keith's Rig34:57 - What Amps Did Keith Use on Previous Tours?37:11 - Signal Chain & Pedalboard (Not Being Used)43:40 - Rack Gear (Fractal, Marshall JMP-1 Power Amp, Acme Audio Motown Preamp DI)49:20 - D'AddarioFull Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/keith-urbanSubscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeWin Guitar Gear: https://bit.ly/GiveawaysPGDon't Miss a Rundown: http://bit.ly/RIgRundownENLMerch & Magazines: https://shop.premierguitar.comPG's Facebook: https://facebook.com/premierguitarPG's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/premierguitar/PG's Twitter: https://twitter.com/premierguitarPG's Threads: https://threads.net/@premierguitarPG's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@premierguitar[Brought to you by D'Addario: https://ddar.io/wykyk-rr]© Copyright Gearhead Communications LLC, 2025#guitar #rigrundown #keithurban #guitarist #guitarplayer #guitargear

In this episode, Blake sits down with legendary singer-songwriter Mary Gauthier for a deep, honest, and surprisingly gear-heavy chat. Mary didn't pick up songwriting seriously until her mid-thirties—after years as a Boston-based chef, restaurant owner, and, as she puts it, a total mess. But once she got sober and started hitting open mics, everything changed. They talk about her early love for Taylor guitars, her eventual obsession with the low-end growl of vintage Gibsons, and how she's more about tone that serves the song than flashy technique. Mary shares the story behind her breakout song “I Drink,” explains why emotion always trumps complexity, and offers a masterclass in the art of getting doors to open in Nashville—even if you have to sneak in through a window. You'll also hear: The connection between fear and fog (and how to burn both off) What it's like to share a stage with John Prine, Emmylou Harris, and Lucinda Williams Why you should never underestimate the power of a good crust (yes, pizza crust) A crash course in humility, persistence, and the power of being kind This one's a gem.

Filmmakers Nova Ami and Velcrow Ripper live in Gibsons, B.C. Like most of us here in B.C., they have experienced wildfire smoke in their community every summer for the last few years. This started them reflecting on what they could add to the conversation as documentary filmmakers who've covered crises throughout their work. Their new film Incandescence weaves together on-the-ground footage with first-person accounts from first responders and people who have lost their homes to wildfire. Incandescence is produced and distributed by the National Film Board. It has its Vancouver premiere on April 11.

What legal responsibilities do towns have when a simple stroll through a park turns tragic? Join us as we sit down with Michael Mulligan to uncover the layers of liability and negligence that come into play when public spaces fail to safeguard their visitors. Through the lens of a heart-wrenching case involving a young boy in Gibsons who became tetraplegic after a dead tree fell on him, we explore the critical question of whether the town fulfilled its duty of care under the Occupiers Liability Act. Michael helps us dissect the legal obligations and expectations placed on municipalities to ensure safety, including how standards like the Wildlife Danger Tree Assessors course influence these responsibilities.Pivoting to the realm of marine life, we navigate the murky waters of marine mammal regulations with a keen eye on a legal case that raises questions about the fairness of prosecution. When a woman was accused of disturbing killer whales while paddleboarding, it highlighted the labyrinth of modern legal statutes that can ensnare even the most well-meaning individuals. Michael guides us through this legal conundrum, addressing the principle that ignorance is no defence and the peculiar world of licensing fees for hunting marine mammals. We spotlight the legal processes, from evidence handling to upholding an individual's right to a fair trial, ensuring that justice remains not just a concept but a reality.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed.

The storm rages righteously for another four minutes.“We just tried to write a good, old fashioned rock and roll song,” said Jimmy, “where the listeners would wonder what happened to their socks: well, they got rocked off by The Jimmy Dixon Group! So, we wrote a little rock and roll tune for our vintage electric guitars and plugged 'em into an amp.”Mission accomplished.“Hopefully, people can dig the groove. It's just a song that makes you feel good.”For those who want to groove on the lyrics:Up in the thinnest of airFading a sense to careNo more painLost touch of what is sane“The great thing about a song is that it can have one meaning to one person and mean something completely different to someone else. And neither one is wrong. For me, it's about, I guess, being on a higher plane,” said Jimmy, “however one gets there, and being able to think about who you are, what you're doing, how you're spending your time.”Like, listening to rock and roll?“That's right. Exactly.”The Jimmy Dixon Group is seven people, all with the surname Dixon (no relation anywhere) as far as anybody outside the group is concerned. The website carries the highly entertaining origin story, and anybody willing to believe it is welcome to do so. Jimmy is lead vocals and, with his 1955 Martin D-28, “some guitar.” Chubbs Dixon is the drummer. Cranky Dixon has a 1959 Gibson Les Paul Special and his wife, “Midnight” Mae Dixon, is the pianist. Gary Dixon plays a 1968 Hofner 500/1 bass and sings backing vocals.Capo Dixon, rhythm guitar, is supposedly named for his love of using a capo on his 1967 Martin D12-35 12-string acoustic and his 2017 Rickenbacker 660/12 electric.Benmont Dixon plays strings.“In Thin Air” is the second of 10 tracks on the album Rough Demos, released this year. This is the first music the group has released. Jimmy tells the story of these seven people who just wanted to get together with their vintage instruments and their love for vintage rock and roll and write and play music. A couple years ago, they did just that. They gather in person from time to time but otherwise work and collaborate from a distance.“We didn't go into it thinking we would make an album. We just went into it thinking we'd have a little fun together, writing some songs and playing together. We spent a lot of time on it, and then all of a sudden we had songs that we had a lot of fun making, and we thought somebody would get a little joy out of listening. So we scraped together what we had in the studio and made an album.”The Rough Demos name has its own origin story, supposedly being “recorded whenever and wherever the group could find an empty studio and an engineer who had his back turned,” according to the official group bio. Believing that is optional.“We really love, and we're really proud of, the album.”Their music is inspired by “the roots of rock and roll,” said Jimmy.He cites '50s Chicago blues — Willie Dixon (no relation), Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, Little Walter — then moving into the '60s with artists such as Dylan, and on to the '70s (Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers).he tracks, whether fast and furious like “In Thin Air” or meditative and whimsical like “Capo 5th Fret No. 2” (“Art is dead, long live the art/Priced to move at Neil's new store”), are full of wonderful performances by the musicians.They are about 90 percent done, he says, with the music that will be Rough Demos II, which will be released early next year.They love the tones of the old instruments too, he said, especially the '50s and '60s Fenders, Gibsons and Martins.“They just have their own unique sound that we really love. Nothing wrong with the new stuff, but we love the sound that you get from an old tweed amp after you plug in that Gibson Les Paul.”“In Thin Air,” a fine piece of old-fashioned rock and roll, has, says Jimmy, “a nice groove to it and people can feel the rock and roll.”He says the band has no career destination.We started out not really having a goal in mind, just playing and creating, having fun and getting joy out of music. We take it one small step at a time, and if we can connect with a couple people here and there who really like our music, that is tremendously exciting for us.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

In this episode, Kyle interviews Mustapha Khan: Emmy Award-winning director with over 100 film and television credits, who has worked with clients such as Coca-Cola and Honda, and celebrities ranging from Maya Angelou to Snoop Dogg. Khan is finalizing a film about Lenny and Elizabeth Gibson and their ongoing work at Dreamshadow – the people and community responsible for Joe and Kyle meeting and the creation of Psychedelics Today. He talks about meeting the Gibsons, being welcomed into their community (instead of his proposed “fly on the wall” role), how centered and happy he felt after his first breathwork session, and what he has learned through the process: that breathwork can be an incredibly healing modality, but the magic he has found has been more in the community surrounding it, and the responsibility (and honor) of being a sitter for someone else. He discusses: The first time his breathwork went psychedelic, and speaking with his recently deceased Mothe How he got into filmmaking and why he wants to tell stories about people like the Gibson The beauty of breathwork not having a dogma or doctrine attached to it The power in holding space for someone else, even if it's just being presen The importance of taking action that aligns with psychedelic ethos: What can you do to contribute to your community? and more! Khan is hoping to release the documentary, “Life and Breath,” in October. In addition to a screening at Dreamshadow, PT will likely do a virtual one as well, so stay tuned for updates!
