Today we talk about:

  1. The Dave Grohl Epiphone Problem: Shipping issues, broken headstocks, and cracked finishes galore! What has happened with these guitars? Epiphone has NO response.
  2. Sweet Water and Glamour Shot Guitar Photos?
  3. Cell Phone Issues: We are highly unprofessional...well, Richard is.
  4. Shipping Guitars is Difficult.
  5. The Line 6 POD Express: This is an awesome piece of gear, and we recently reviewed it. If you want to read our review, Click HERE. This podcast was the week before the review.
  6. The Problem With Guitar Plugins: Spoiler: It is the latency. This is a big issue, and the professionals are starting to notice.
  7. Tidal Should Sponsor Us: Christopher has been buying CDs again, since streaming sucks. Tidal is better quality, and works with young bands.
  8. Richard Only Had 3 CDs In His Car A Decade Ago: What were they?
  9. Older Guitar Amp Sims Were BAD.
  10. The "Perpetually Online Guitar Player"...when are you actually playing?
  11. The Future is A Dystopia...maybe.
  12. Baritone Guitars?
  13. DUNE was a cool movie, and that brings us to....

Main Topic:

"Gear Acquisition Syndrome (G.A.S), also known as Guitar Acquisition Syndrome, is a chronic condition that affects many guitarists who play for long enough. It's the urge to buy and own instruments and equipment, even when the latest gadgets are just a click away. Musicians may believe that this will lead to creative energy and happiness, but GAS can also lead to spending money on gear that is not needed."

Our opinion? If you spend more time playing your guitar than worrying about your gear then you will be:

  • A lot happier
  • A lot richer $$$
  • A much better guitar player

But being content does not sell guitars. Consumerism at its finest, right? Learn to love your gear!
