Dylan Johnson
Just a few guys playing music and talking gear!!! Asking the question whos on bass in a group of guitarist fighting for the lead. And a look into the life of a band from the beginning.
Just got the other Silvertone 604 in so you gotta hear it. Also some old guitars that take concepts of other brands, and make them their own. Check out the Indie IRK5 and the Framus Junior 6.
I'm back finally with a new guitar! The Silvertone 604mhns. I try it out next to the original from the 60s and a new Guild troubadour. This thing really holds it own and I love it.
We discover that there's no Competition in the Squier Competition orange Mustang vs the Classic Vibe Mustang. We also check out the Warm audio Centavo, and put it against some of the best that Lovepedal has to offer.
It's been a long time, we are back with a new episode. Checking out some New pedals!!! Talking about New Squiers! And rambling about useless nonsense that will drive you nuts!!!! enjoy
Austin is back with a fun find! A Squier acoustic from the early 2000s! And it actually plays and sounds RAD!
We went to the local Guitar Center with a mission! We wanted to see what a person could find on a random visit. Turns out it's not crazy impressive. We also check out a Lovepedal Les Lius, a Littlebear Rattack, and a MXR Badass 78!
Short demo and review of a used Harley Benton Ric style bass. It's not a Ric but it's something in that ballpark.
So we have had some issues with the app. Some episodes were deleted... Now new format? Solo episode talking about some Guilds, a B stock Squier, and an update on where we have been.
Well this sucks. Anchor had a glitch and it deleted our episode so check back next week.
We are back after the holidays with a new demo of an old pedal. We have a bass Zoom multi stomp tonight!!!
Sorry but we all are soooooooooo busy!!! Work has put us behind on recording. Luckily I had some time to review some things. The Squier 69 thinline telecaster and the Warm Audio Jet Phaser. I will just say one of these things suck.
So the night started off as a canceled due to weather night. Then it turned into a total Tone Master lovefest! Mike and I put the 2022 Fender deluxe reverb tone master up against my best amps. I gotta say it does great but there's a reason to have different amps and if you listen you'll see why.
Tonight we check out an amazing 60s Eko Cobra, a new Fender deluxe reverb tone master, and a new Vox Giulietta! Mike also talks about just how lucky he is with eBay and reverb.
We are back with a few new instruments! Squier CV 50s and 60s pbass and 60s jbass with or without flatwounds! Also I make up my mind on a local Mosrite find. And we talk about a new Big Muff
Is buying a demo site unseen a good idea? If the price is right? How about the condition? Well sometimes yes!
We look at a classic!!! The Vox Pathfinder 15r!!! Is it still a great amp or is it just nostalgic needs of an aging hipster? I think its both!
This has been on the back burner for a little bit. By Austin. Hope you enjoy! Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
Shorty tonight! I got a really nice Ric styled IYV guitar and it's amazing! You have to try one out!
Tonight we talk treble boosters, epi coronets, and Tagima guitars! You gotta try out a Tagima!!!

This is a song by Austin. This project has allowed me to learn a lot. If anything just grateful for learning. I hope its something you enjoy! Please don't hesitate on reaching out to leave feedback!
Only one of these items blew me away!!! The rest left me wondering, how did this get made? Tonight episode we hear a 1967 Vox solidstate Cambridge Reverb, a NEW Maestro FZ-M Fuzztone, and a Chinese Hofner Cavren Bass. This is a real complaint heavy episode so enjoy.
