We Hate AI Guitar Amps

This week we discuss the latest gear releases, including the JHS Fumble, Merit Ottobit X, Eventide H9 Gen 2, a ton of new acoustics from Orangewood, and the Epiphone Hummingbird Tribute. And of course, we talk about the new Positive Grid Reactor amps, which are driven by AI modeling and we have some strong opinions. We jump on some user submitted topics, such as a quick rundown of Andrew's current guitar rig setup and Kat's LOVE for all things JHS.

We're mad at Fender, but we're sick (of all the videos about it.)

Episode 84: After taking a week off, we are back but unfortunately we are both sick. Speaking of being sick, we have both been feeling burnout in the guitar YouTube space with Fender cease and desist reaction videos dominating this space for the past couple weeks. While it is an important topic, we have nothing to contribute to the conversation that hasn't already been said and we do not wish to speculate over facts in the matter that we simply do not have access to. We will continue to report on the facts as things develop, but we see no need to film content on the subject just for the sake of getting clicks. We're all outraged about it, but what else can really be said on the subject until there is more to report on?We also discuss the upcoming $89 JHS pedal release, Summer School Electronics' guitar club program, and EarthQuaker Devices teaming up with the lottery league fundraiser for a limited edition Barrows Fuzz. And of course we had to talk about the new Wes Borland signature guitar.

Fender and Gibson are out of touch with players.

Episode 83:In this episode we discuss the biggest releases of the week, including the Marshall and Dunlop collaborative Jimi Hendrix amp and Fuzz Face pedal, An Ibanez Tube Screamer watch, A Fender Pac-Man guitar, awesome new pedals from Mythos and EarthQuaker Devices, and more! We also discuss the declining quality and rising cost of Fender and Gibson vs. their competitors who manage to keep things well built but affordable or offer custom builds for not much more than the two biggest brands (all without suing anyone).
