Steel guitarist and country music historian Pete Finney joins me on the show this week.I got to know Pete's playing when I'd go and see Chris' Scruggs' band The Stone Fox Five out in the parking lot of the East Nashville Legion during Covid. They'd put on a well-distanced weekly show that was my only live music for a couple of years! I loved Pete's soulful playing and got to learn more about his interesting history, mostly on the pedal steel guitar, playing for all kinds of country legends - artists like Reba McIntyre, The Judds, Vince Gill, The Chicks, The Monkees and lots more. Pete has a unique style, and while he has clearly absorbed the classic country sounds, he doesn't sound like anyone else. Pete's path from the DC area playing almost every night in country bars, to Austin to play with Doug Sahm, to his move to Nashville in the 80's is an interesting one, and Pete has carved out an incredible career in that time. Lately, Pete has also taken on the role of historian, and had a big hand in producing the Country Music Hall Of Fame's “Dylan, Cash and The Nashville Cats” exhibit, which was one of the best collections of 60's and 70's country music stories, exhibits and paraphernalia ever put on display. Pete is a well loved Nashville icon and plays around town with many different artists. He has no website or social media, so you'll have to just keep your ear to the ground about where to see himj play if you're in Nashville, but don't miss your chance if you get it!Enjoy my conversation with Pete Finney.This season is brought to you by our main sponsors Larivée Guitars, Audeze, Izotope, FabFilter, and Chase Bliss.

Blake sits down with Kyle Wolfe of Moon Guitars to chart the journey from teenage Van Halen brain-melt to full-tilt luthier madness. Kyle gets “voluntold” into his cousin's repair shop, learns the craft one fret polish at a time, and discovers that carving his first Tele body flips the big red switch that shuts up the brain gremlins. We get into launching Moon in 2018, ditching repair work, and the unsexy truth about small-shop economics: time costs, dust flies, and quality wins—or it doesn't ship. Kyle talks outsourcing finishes like a grownup, chasing a truly affordable line (factory samples inbound), and his design sweet spot. We are talking familiar bones with pointy '80s attitude. Sparked by the Fender Performer and blessed with actual John Page template tracings. We hit the Blood Moon, Troublemaker, Crescent Moon, and Zenith; the Mjölnir collab with Ravenkelt; how the Internet sometimes actually delivers; impending dad mode; and eternal laws of the universe: the BOSS OD-2 rips, pepperoni pizza is the people's champion, and cold slices at 1 a.m. are a moral right. If you like guitars that look loud, play forever, and don't apologize for either... this episode is for you!

Inside the Tower, Clarence begs for his life. Later, at the Gilman DIY Music Venue, King Edward secures a reluctant peace between his family's rival factions, but collapses in grief when Richard arrives with news of Clarence's death. In the ensuing chaos, Richard secures the alliance of Buckingham and Ratcliffe. That night, Elizabeth and the Duchess grieve the deaths of Edward and Clarence. Richard enters to offer his condolences and Buckingham suggests a quiet coronation for the young prince Edward in order to avoid civil unrest. Meanwhile, Dorset and Rivers rush to secure the safety of Prince Edward in Ludlow. At Rasputin Records, citizens fret over being ruled by a child King with Richard as his Protector. At home with her younger son, the Prince of York, Elizabeth gets a tattoo as she ruminates with the Duchess over their horrible state of affairs. A messenger arrives with the news that Dorset and Rivers have been imprisoned in Pomfret by Richard and Buckingham.

Mary Flower finally convinced her parents to buy her an acoustic guitar when she was around the age of 12, growing up in Indiana more than six decades ago. Inspired by the folk stylings of Bob Dylan and Joan Baez, Flower taught herself to play and was good enough to teach the instrument while still in high school. She continued to perform and teach while in college, which she left to embark on a career as a professional guitarist and singer-songwriter based in Denver.    In 2004, Flower moved to Portland, where she continued to gain acclaim for her albums and performances, including being nominated three times for a “Blues Music Award” from the Blues Foundation and being inducted into the Cascade Blues Association’s “Muddy Award” Hall of Fame and the Colorado Music Hall of Fame.     This Saturday, Flower will receive the 2025 “Best of the West Artist Award” from Folk Alliance Region-West in recognition of her contributions to folk music in the region and her ability to “build bridges between traditional genres.”   Despite her busy performance and touring schedule, Flower continues to find time to instruct and mentor fellow guitarists. Earlier this month, she wrapped up Blues in the Gorge, a 5-day acoustic blues guitar camp for adults in the Columbia Gorge she started 12 years ago. Flower  leads the workshops with the help of several other musicians she chooses each year for their ability to both perform and teach.   Flower joins us to discuss her expansive career and extensive collaborations with other artists in musical genres spanning from blues to jazz.

Send Steve a Text MessageWhat makes a guitar solo truly musical? Is it technical prowess, scale knowledge, or something deeper? In this revelatory exploration of improvisation, Steve Stine strips away the technical complexities to focus on what really matters: creating authentic guitar solos that respond to what the music is asking for.Forget about simply memorizing more scales or arpeggios. Steve challenges the conventional approach to improvisation by emphasizing the crucial connection between your ears, brain, and fingers. "You have to practice improvising," he explains. "You can't just practice exercises all day long and learn more scales and more fretboard things and then expect that your improvisation is going to get better." This simple but profound insight shifts the focus from accumulating knowledge to developing musical intuition.Through practical demonstrations across multiple backing tracks—funk, rock, major key ballads, and blues—Steve reveals how different musical contexts demand different approaches. For groove-based music, connecting rhythmically becomes paramount. For major key compositions, melodic awareness takes center stage. Throughout all examples, Steve demonstrates how to break free from predictable "boxes" where phrases all have the same shape and motion, offering instead a more speech-like, expressive alternative.Perhaps most valuable is Steve's explanation of balancing "connected" playing (locked to the rhythm) with "free time" playing (momentarily detached from strict rhythmic constraints). This interplay creates the dynamic tension that characterizes the most engaging solos from legends like Robin Ford and Gary Moore, who could "play nice and melodic and then all of a sudden rip something out and then go back in."Ready to transform your approach to improvisation? Whether you're struggling with connecting to the groove, creating varied musical phrases, or finding your authentic voice as a soloist, Steve's insights provide a clear path forward.

Christone "Kingfish" Ingram has been steeped in the Blues since he was eight years old, when he visited the Delta Blues Museum as a student in Clarksdale, Mississippi (Jackson Advocate). He played drums, bass, and GUITAR and was recognized at a young age for his exceptional musical talent with his debut album Kingfish, in 2019 on Alligator Records. Since then he's released two more albums, won a Grammy and a shelfful of Blues Music Awards, and he's still just 26. His raw and inspired guitar playing, soulful vocals and mature songwriting, bandleading, mentoring younger musicians, and starting his own record label have led Christone “Kingfish” Ingram to be “the face of a new generation of blues artists” (Fender). Christone "Kingfish" Ingram and his band play songs from the new album, called Hard Road, in-studio. Set list: 1. Voodoo Charm 2. Bad Like Me 3. Nothin' But Your Love 

This week, Paul dives deep into the emotional ups and downs of learning guitar, inspired by a heartfelt community post from member Baltazar. With Baltazar's permission, Paul explores the realities of balancing progress, avoiding burnout, and keeping guitar practice both effective and joyful. Whether you're cruising through milestones or stuck on a stubborn plateau, you'll find practical strategies and inspiration to keep you moving forward—without losing sight of the fun.Key TopicsCommunity NewsPaul announces the latest Academy Show: a monthly roundup with shoutouts to members for progress checks, level assessments, and guitar anniversaries.The show is available in the Academy's Community section and in the “Just Added” section on the main dashboard.The Dopamine Rush of ProgressEarly victories (like learning your first chords or songs) feel amazing and addictive.The danger: chasing that feeling can rush your learning and undermine long-term progress if you don't let skills settle.When Progress Slows DownHitting your first wall is normal—whether it's a tricky chord, a stubborn strum pattern, or finishing a whole song in time.Frustration is natural; it's not a sign of failure, but a plateau where real growth happens, much like a workout plateau at the gym.Baltazar's BreakthroughsInstead of quitting, Baltazar adjusted:Extended his timeline: Gave himself extra weeks to reach goals, relieving pressure.Restructured practice: Short, focused 15-minute sessions every other day, instead of long, exhausting ones.Played for fun: Added songs he truly enjoys (“Ultimate Song List”), reconnecting with the reasons he started guitar.The result: Less stress, more fun, and renewed motivation.Mindset & ConsistencyBaltazar's most inspiring line: “Quitting isn't an option. Not at 73. If I hadn't quit at 29, I might be a solid guitarist by now.”Age doesn't matter; consistency and showing up do.Practical TakeawaysSlow Down Your Timeline:Adjust deadlines for YOUR pace. Focus on practice frequency over arbitrary deadlines.Restructure Your Practice:Keep core skills and songs, but don't grind every day. Focusing on 15 minutes of practice every other day is sufficient.Play for Fun:Mix in songs you love, even if they're not part of the curriculum. Motivation matters.Use Assessments as Motivation:Treat them like checkpoints—NOT finish lines or races.Reset When Needed:If guitar feels like a chore, pause, adjust, and bring back what's enjoyable.Remember the Long Game:Progress is possible at any age. The only way to “lose” is to quit.Final ThoughtsPaul thanks Baltazar for his openness and encourages all listeners: don't quit, reset if needed, and always keep the fun in your guitar journey.If you'd like to share your guitar story, join the community at Beginner Guitar Academy.Join the Community:If you're not yet a member, visit beginnerguitaracademy.com to get started.See you next week—keep practicing and enjoying the journey!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 586 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - New Guitar Day, Reverse Headstocks, and the End of Creativity?Brian accuses Richard of many things but one that cannot be denied is his hypnotic power to make other people buy a guitar. Including you. Yes, you know you want to - treat yourself. Blake has an all new shred machine and he shows it off much to the enjoyment of Brian and Richard. Do you ever play a guitar with a reverse headstock? The guys question the benefits and Richard gets very confused. Meanwhile Brian has been digging into the new Synyster Gates amplifier and keys us in with the details. There was a nice completion of a My Chemical Romance related circle when we took a look at their latest rig rundown. There was some sad news this week as we learned of the passing of Ken Parker, one of the most innovative guitar builders of all time, so the guys talk about the Parker Fly design briefly. Meanwhile there have been some new Ai developments which the guys are almost duty-bound to discuss.Gibson x Charvel, Whitfill guitars, Brown Lobster, Puccini, Brad Paisley's new favorite guitarist...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!We are on Patreon now too!Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/chasingtonepodcast)Awesome Courses and DIY mods:https://www.guitarpedalcourse.com/https://www.wamplerdiy.com/Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@chasingtonepodcastFind us at:https://www.wamplerpedals.com/https://www.instagram.com/WamplerPedals/https://www.facebook.com/groups/wamplerfanpage/Contact us at: podcast@wamplerpedals.comSupport the show

On this wild episode, we kick things off with HUGE news — Rush is officially returning to the stage!

What does a true wall of sound feel like when the vocal still breathes? We sit down with vocalist‑producer Jay Cali (DRUMxWAVE) and mixer‑producer Brian Skeel to unpack the craft behind Severed, big drums, widescreen synths, supportive guitars, and why clarity starts with a shared vision before a single plug‑in loads.We trace the journey from demo to master, beginning with an hour of alignment on emotion, references, and the “mountaintop” vocal image that sets every downstream choice. Brian breaks down how he builds commanding vocals without harshness: Revoice for doubles and harmonies that behave like real performances, meticulous cleanup, Slate's processing for character and control, FabFilter DS for precision, and a touch of L1 to pin dynamics so automation can shape arcs. Width becomes a dynamic fader, verses intimate and centred, choruses opening with MicroShift for that lift you feel more than hear. Jay and Brian also reveal the “demon” breakdown: a vocoder moment sculpted with Baby Audio's Humanoid, tamed by Soothe 2 and widened just enough to shock, then glide.If you've ever struggled to pair synths and guitars, you'll get a clear playbook. Guitars serve aggression rather than steal focus, panned L/R and low‑passed to make way for hi‑hats and vocal air. Synth choices lean on Serum 2 and ANA 2, with patches picked for fit, not flash. The top end gets the same discipline as the low: cut clutter above 10 kHz so the mix doesn't fizz, a lesson that came into focus after upgrading monitors and hearing what the old room hid. And for loudness without lifelessness - around −7.8 LUFS - Brian details a reference‑driven, top‑down chain using Metric AB, soft clipping and bus moves to reduce limiter strain, and focused multiband to keep choruses powerful without pumping.Along the way, you'll pick up collaboration habits that save weeks: arrive with a concise brief and references, label stems to spec, and send specific revision notes. Ready to test it? Grab one current track with guitars, synths, and vocals. Try widening only the chorus vocal and low‑passing rhythm guitars until the breath returns. Hear the space? That's what loud and open can sound like. If this resonates, follow, share with a friend who mixes dense productions, and leave a quick review so more producers can find these deep dives.Links mentioned in this episode:Follow DRUMxWAVEFollow Brian SkeelListen to Chroma CloudSend me a message Support the showWays to connect with Marc: Download your FREE Producer Growth Scorecard Radio-ready mixes start here - get the FREE weekly tips Book your FREE Music Breakthrough Strategy Call Follow Marc's Socials: Instagram | YouTube | Synth Music Mastering Thanks for listening!!

Queen Elizabeth replays a tape of her husband King Edward's band as she obsesses over his failing health. Her brother, Lord Rivers, tries to comfort her, as do her two sons from a previous marriage, Gray and Dorset. She tells them that the sons she conceived with Edward are still too young to rule, and that if her husband dies, the throne will go to Richard until the oldest son comes of age, putting her safety in jeopardy. Buckingham and Derby arrive to report that King Edward's health is improving and that he wants to make peace between Richard and Elizabeth's clans. Richard barges in with Hastings at his side, railing that he's being disrespected and that people are telling lies about him. Elizabeth does her best to defend herself against his accusation that she put Clarence in jail and that she is vying for the throne. As they argue, the old Queen Margaret arrives unseen and listens to them from outside the house, commenting bitterly to herself about how quickly power is lost. She finally confronts the group and berates Richard for the murders of her family before cursing everyone in the room, one by one. After she departs, Catesby enters to say that King Edward wants to talk to his family. Richard, left alone, celebrates his mischief, then hires two murderers to kill his brother Clarence in the Tower. There, Clarence tells Brackenbury (the jailer) about a nightmare he had in which he drowned trying to rescue Richard and was dragged down to hell.

Guitar legend Steve Hackett returns to the Now Spinning Magazine Podcast for our fifth conversation. We talk candidly about health, the healing power of music, his packed 2025–2026 touring schedule, 38 minutes of new studio material, band lineup changes (Nick D'Virgilio, Felix Lehrmann, L.A. Lawson), the Dolby Atmos experience of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, and the long-form magic of Foxtrot, Selling England by the Pound, and “Supper's Ready.”Steve also addresses the big question: could there be a future classical-leaning collaboration with Tony Banks and other Genesis members?

It's been five years since the passing of Eddie Van Halen — one of the most influential and groundbreaking guitarists of all time. In this special episode, radio veteran and musician Keith Roth joins hosts The Vernomatic and Metal Walt to celebrate Eddie's life, music, and legacy. Keith shares his personal experiences meeting Eddie and Van Halen over the years, offering a rare, first-hand look at the man behind the guitar hero. Along the way, Vernomatic and Walt recall their own run-ins with Eddie, swapping stories about the first time they saw Van Halen live, the unforgettable riffs that changed their lives, and the moments that still give them chills today. Many fans also know Keith as the co-host of Rockstrap on the Pantheon Podcast Network, where he and Don Jamieson discuss their love of heavy metal with sports legends. Tonight's conversation taps into that same passion — music, memory, and the spirit that keeps Eddie's influence alive for generations.

A sonic thrill ride for fans of guitar music, guitar hero/composer LYLE WORKMAN's new album — called Rhythm and Leads Guitar — is a captivating instrumental odyssey no guitarist should miss. Step into Lyle's studio with me, and we'll plug in some guitars with him and dive deep into his new record and much more — including his blazing solos with Bourgeois Tagg back in the '80s; his new, custom Stan Cotey-modded EVH head; and even some cool pedalboards. And yes: Lyle is a highly accomplished film composer, so if you want to immerse yourself in that realm (including learning how he created soundtracks to hit movies such as “SuperBad” and “The 40-Year-Old Virgin”), be sure to go back and listen to Lyle's FIRST appearance on this show, which was on Ep. 110 of No Guitar Is Safe (back in 2020). This episode is presented by GUITAR PLAYER and GutiarPlayer.com. Thank you, Guitar Player! 
And thank YOU for listening. Please share! —JUDE GOLD, host and creator, No Guitar Is Safe podcast

Send Steve a Text MessageMoving beyond scales in improvisation requires balancing technical knowledge with creative expression. We need to develop both our "guitar brain" and our "music brain" to create authentic musical moments.• The guitar brain encompasses technical skills like scales, arpeggios, theory, and fretboard knowledge• Most guitarists get overwhelmed practicing too many disconnected techniques• The music brain thinks about what you want to sound like and how to respond to what you're hearing• Consider elements like phrasing, repetition, dynamics, and register when improvising• Start with backing tracks that match your current skill level and comfortable keys• Narrow your focus instead of constantly adding more techniques• Practice creative expression daily rather than occasionally• Authentic playing connects with audiences more than technical flashiness• Assess what's working in your playing before adding new elements• Make deliberate musical choices about speed, volume, register, and styleKeep practicing and focus on developing your creative approach alongside your technical skills.
