Brian and Blake are at it again with another episode of the Chasing Tone podcast.

Just when the dust had seemed to settle on the drama surrounding Gibson they have to go and delete all their videos from their YouTube channel. And then there are rumors that Mark Agnesi is gone? It is an authentic conversation.

A meme is circulating comparing modern day musicians with the rock stars of 1987. The guys talk about the image and if there is any merit to it’s theme.

275 - Giving Away Pedals is Hard

Brian and Blake are back for another Chasing Tone podcast.

You put together a video and put a little surprise pedal give-away at the end that you think only a few would see. The surprise is on you and now you have to answer all the emails. First World problems. Brian talks about how it all went down.

Brian found some spring tank impulse responses that are pretty incredible. This leads to an interesting conversation about the depths of IR’s and the many ways they can be used.

Relic’d equipment, Blake wants to scare you, and he is not in Indiana. It’s all in this week’s episode of the Chasing Tone podcast.

274 - Do gear companies have unique personalities? Sep 16, 2019

Show notes

Brian and Blake are back for another Chasing Tone podcast.

Renaming the podcast? Brian’s “escape”, and a hard host to listen to. It’s all in this week’s episode of the Chasing Tone podcast.
