If you could talk to yourself from ten years ago, what would you say? And what would ten-years-in-the-future-you tell now-you?

This week your buds get into it with this gearthought experiment as well as Dave triggering Hank with a Goldtop conversion. We dive into the hot new trend of reliced tattoos, Colorware microphone customization, why every piece of gear is black, and even found time for a DODfather update with Kurt Cobain’s Grunge pedal.

Also discussed: the Gamechanger Bigsby pedal made with Fender, virtual reality air guitar game Unplugged, the Scope Labs Periscope microphone with built-in compression, keeping your strings loose when you’re not playing (don’t do this), and WASP.

Darkbacks are real.
