429 - Are the days of the cheap Boss pedal over?

Chasing Tone - Guitar Podcast About Gear, Effects, Amps and Tone

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for an all-new episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast!
Richard has developed a new system to improve fluidity of speech and it is roundly ignored by Brian and Blake before they immediately start talking about a new five-mode goat-based fuzz pedal that isn't made by Wampler. Outrageous! This leads the guys down many bizarre rabbit holes including Richard's handedness confusion before they all freak out in a moonage daydream while discussing the new Bowie bio-pic-o-docu-film.
Would you be disappointed if you went to see a live act and it was just a singer and a backing track? There was some controversy in the UK when a famous lead singer performed a kind of pimped out Dad karaoke (according to some) and the guys chat about this before Brian serenades us with his sweet, sweet voice...and Richard tells us why he is about to go metal thrashing mad.
Blake is pumped to go and see My Chemical Romance, is worried about wiring harness security, and we learn a bit about why Elmo knows everything. This leads into a discussion about the cost of used pedals in the market today and particularly with price of Boss pedals and the currency market. Brian has had a listener email relating to DIY pedal pcbs and the guys talk about it in an almost on-topic section.
Cursive cursing, Burly mice, Eric Clapton's air guitar, Anthrax, The multi DB-plus-u-ron, The Wampler Gold Stone, The Jeff Beck hookup...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!
