Wampler Pedals

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 622 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - So you want to be a guitar YouTuber? Start here...

Blake dreams of marketing, lycra, and broken tables in what is probably the most unhinged introductions in at least a week. Meanwhile, Brian and Blake bring their not inconsiderable experience to bear as Richard prepares to film his first pedal demo video and there are some super useful tips.

Have you ever owned an artist-signed pedal? Richard discovered a cache of wild Wampler pedals and tells us of his big day out in London and also talks about the setup of his new PRS. Somehow Leisure Suit Larry gets mentioned for the second time ever on this show.

Social media rears its ugly head and the guys discuss the current lay of the land. Meanwhile, Brian is GASsing for a new pedal and he has a request for all listeners to help him in his quest.

Something something Fender, A gig in every country, Marshall Jukebox, PSA - Smoking is bad, The Screaming AbDabs... it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!
