My First STRATOCASTER w/ Joe Branton of Guitar Nerds

My First STRATOCASTER w/ Joe Branton of Guitar Nerds

On this episode of The Tone Mob Podcast, I am reunited with Joe Branton of Guitar Nerds for a lively discussion about our latest guitar and bass acquisitions, the nuances of said purchases, and the cultural significance of Fender and Gibson guitars.

We also explore the resurgence of 70s guitars, the evolution of modern gear, and the intricacies of using wah pedals.

This is the most GUITAR GEAR focused (yet rambling) chat of the Tone Mob in quite some time, so I'm sure you will get a kick out of it.

Topics Include:

  • My first Strat is PERFECT! (almost)
  • The 70s guitar aesthetic is making a comeback.
  • Modern gear trends often prioritize portability over sound.
  • Wah pedals can be used creatively beyond traditional methods. (How?)
  • The importance of personal connections in the gear community.
  • Vintage instruments often come with maintenance challenges. (Duh)
  • Exploring different tones can lead to unexpected discoveries.
  • The evolution of guitar culture and how it reflects broader musical trends.
