Much like a fine wine or spirit, a band or even a guitar, can really find its musical palate over time. Of course there are many factors that make this aging process one that we appreciate. Whether it be the finish on the guitar, the vibration of the wood, the style of the music, or the changes made over the course of its life, we all can agree that many find vintage gear to be better.

But… Does old really mean better? Is it the guitar or is it the player that changed? Can we speed up the process? Do Pickups need a break in time? Is Nitro better than Poly? Can a player get better over time or do they peak? And… who do we think has gotten worse with age?

Well we will discuss this, and more on this part 2 group therapy session with John, on the Tweed Couch.
