Fret Talk

BudgetPedalChap  is joined by the dream team (Matt Quine and Ayrton Tracey) for another  exciting round up of the week’s events in the guitar world. This week we  tackle such hot news topics, such as a wonderful price drop on the old  ’18 stock of the Gibson range as well as an exciting new release from  Seymour Duncan and a sneaky exclusive pedal from KHDK. We also talk  about some things we may have our eyes on over in the world of Instagram  and some sneaky pedal purchases too.

BudgetPedalChap  is beside Matt ‘wrastlin’ Quine and Ayrton ‘The Sin Circuis’ Tracey for  some of the highlights of the week in guitar. This week is a very  Gibson centric episode, with two signature offerings from Epiphone and  some talk of the recent events involving the big G financial saga. We  discuss a few new additions to the new fender line of pedals and bring  the smut and crassness full force this week.

BudgetPedalChap is reunited with the one and only Matt Quine of the Isle  of Man fame. We catch up on the happenings of the week and get right  into a juicy bucket of guitar news because things actually happened this  week. We talk about the recent drop by EHX, you guessed it, another  muff. Exciting stuff, no really, I’m not being sarcastic. We talk about  Gibson and the whole DIP switch debacle and other things what are  mentioned in the news and stuff. We also might make a slightly blue joke  or two. Thank you once again for listening and we will see you soon,  enjoy :).  Throw us a 5-star review on Itunes to help us soar up the ranks and  sharing the cast helps us immensely also.  Don't forget to have your online on the Fret Talk Podcast group on  Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/690366661155328/?ref=bookmarkssay  Find your host at:   BudgetPedalChap : www.Facebook.com/budgetpedalchap www.Instagram.com/budgetpedalchap https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRgWgj6py1MhgMq4Htw2sQA or search ‘budget pedal chap’ on YouTube  Ollie Miles : www.Facebook.com/OllieMilesMusic  Matt Quine : www.Facebook.com/SwitchIOM www.twitter.com/heel_mattq  Paul Mason : www.Dontpanic.com www.Dontpanic.co.uk www.Facebook.com/dontpanicblackpool www.Instagram.com/showmaster87  Paul Fletcher : www.instagram.com/fletchandguitars  Paul Farrell : www.Twitter.com/VitaminnP  Chris Wilson : www.Facebook.com/demolabstudio  Moog Gravett : https://www.facebook.com/TheBandRapscallion/ Andrew ‘The Guitar Geek’ Ferris :  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI5i6aBbINMIEkYW3b6olHg www.Instagram.com/theguitargeekyt 

BudgetPedalChap is joined by none other than Ollie bloody Miles from way  back in the day! If I remember rightly, he is on episode number 1, so  real old school host here. He tells us of all of his exploits since  then, like passing uni (clever chap eh!), buying plenty of lovely stuff  including a bit of a tasty PRS and his journey through the land of  modelling units. We talk about the newly released 2019 Gibson range as  it seems to now be dropping in stores as well as some more delightful  things from Fender Japan. We do another company spotlight which make us  question how on Earth they do it for the money they are asking?  Seriously, it might actually be black magic.

We discuss some pretty sweet free plug-ins for  you budding home studio nuts as well as some other cool stuff. We get  into the meat and bones of metal week with a special run by PRS as well  as discussing the lines by Solar guitars by Ola Englund. We chat about  the potential of a new Metallica ESP, which isn’t too shabby at all. If  you enjoyed this week, don’t forget to get to hop over to your  podcatcher and give us a lovely review.

 BudgetPedalChap and Matt Quine get super down to clown with all things  guitar this week. They talk about the trials and tribulations of being a  gigging guitarist as well as giving some super helpful tips about what  to do when playing an outdoor event in a rainy climate. We discuss the  variax technology again because we like it, it is pretty damn awesome  and you should go check it out. It brings us on to the topic of strats  and how they are actually pretty awesome and how BPC might actually be  becoming a bit of a strat man. We talk about the awesome bounty of JSA  effects pedals that we got to try this week and a lovely cheesy surprise  that joined it. We also shine a spotlight on some of those really  interesting FSR Japan Fenders and talk about some sweet vintage  instruments. Give us a like on iTunes and share the podcast with  friends. We do this for you lot and we appreciate your support, maybe  together we can make this thing blow the eff up and we do that by  getting it out there. Cheers once again for your patronage and check out  the next in the interview series which may be up a little later this  week due to some technical snafus.  Throw us a 5-star review on Itunes to help us soar up the ranks and  sharing the cast helps us immensely also.  Don't forget to have your online on the Fret Talk Podcast group on  Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/690366661155328/?ref=bookmarkssay  Find your host at:   BudgetPedalChap : www.Facebook.com/budgetpedalchap www.Instagram.com/budgetpedalchap https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRgWgj6py1MhgMq4Htw2sQA or search ‘budget pedal chap’ on YouTube  Ollie Miles : www.Facebook.com/OllieMilesMusic  Matt Quine : www.Facebook.com/SwitchIOM www.twitter.com/heel_mattq  Paul Mason : www.Dontpanic.com www.Dontpanic.co.uk www.Facebook.com/dontpanicblackpool www.Instagram.com/showmaster87  Paul Fletcher : www.instagram.com/fletchandguitars  Paul Farrell : www.Twitter.com/VitaminnP  Chris Wilson : www.Facebook.com/demolabstudio  Moog Gravett : https://www.facebook.com/TheBandRapscallion/ Andrew ‘The Guitar Geek’ Ferris :  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI5i6aBbINMIEkYW3b6olHg www.Instagram.com/theguitargeekyt 

BudgetPedalChap  and Matt Quine barely even mention the Variax this week! It is a  miracle… well, kind of. Mr BudgetPedalChap gets all nostalgic over one  of the guitar brands he has a massive soft spot for and decides to dip  into their current catalogue to see what is going on. We discuss the  ubiquitous Fulltone OCD and get all working-manly by talking about  woodworking. We tackle the burning question on everyone’s lips: is the  Peavey Vypyr pro 100 any good? Ok, maybe it isn’t the hottest of topics  and we talk about it without actually having played one, but this week’s  news was incredibly slow so I mean, come on, give us a bit of slack  here. If you like what you hear, don’t be shy, say hi on our Facebook  group and also drop us a 5-star review. We appreciate the support as  much as you appreciate the entertainment, so let’s work together to make  this even bigger and better! I’d like to see if you’re making it this  far into the description of this week’s podcast; if you have done, go  into the Facebook group and type the words ‘Banana Sandwich’. If nothing  else, it’ll confuse the people who don’t read this.  Throw us a 5-star review on Itunes to help us soar up the ranks and  sharing the cast helps us immensely also.  Don't forget to have your online on the Fret Talk Podcast group on  Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/690366661155328/?ref=bookmarkssay  Find your host at:   BudgetPedalChap : www.Facebook.com/budgetpedalchap www.Instagram.com/budgetpedalchap https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRgWgj6py1MhgMq4Htw2sQA or search ‘budget pedal chap’ on YouTube  Ollie Miles : www.Facebook.com/OllieMilesMusic  Matt Quine : www.Facebook.com/SwitchIOM www.twitter.com/heel_mattq  Paul Mason : www.Dontpanic.com www.Dontpanic.co.uk www.Facebook.com/dontpanicblackpool www.Instagram.com/showmaster87  Paul Fletcher : www.instagram.com/fletchandguitars  Paul Farrell : www.Twitter.com/VitaminnP  Chris Wilson : www.Facebook.com/demolabstudio  Moog Gravett : https://www.facebook.com/TheBandRapscallion/ Andrew ‘The Guitar Geek’ Ferris :  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI5i6aBbINMIEkYW3b6olHg www.Instagram.com/theguitargeekyt

STRAIGHT UP WARNING – the audio on the first five minutes is super  crappy, I can only apologise and tell you it gets better, honestly.  BudgetPedalChap and Matt Quine get a little bit gushy about the Variax  again, don’t worry, it isn’t as much as last week. They honestly do  sound good though and are hugely inspiring when being able to switch  quickly between massively different tones. We look at the new offering  from the Fender parallel universe line (yup, it is the one that Matt  wants). We discuss a bit of an Xotic Tele and take a look at a new pedal  from the guys and gals over at JRockett. We gove a mention to Cort, a  company that doesn’t get a huge deal of recognition, and look at some  potentially game changing tech they are bringing to the table. If you  like what you hear, don’t be shy, say hi on our Facebook group and also  drop us a 5-star review. We appreciate the support as much as you  appreciate the entertainment, so let’s work together to make this even  bigger and better!  Throw us a 5-star review on Itunes to help us soar up the ranks and  sharing the cast helps us immensely also.  Don't forget to have your online on the Fret Talk Podcast group on  Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/690366661155328/?ref=bookmarkssay  Find your host at:   BudgetPedalChap : www.Facebook.com/budgetpedalchap www.Instagram.com/budgetpedalchap https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRgWgj6py1MhgMq4Htw2sQA or search ‘budget pedal chap’ on YouTube  Ollie Miles : www.Facebook.com/OllieMilesMusic  Matt Quine : www.Facebook.com/SwitchIOM www.twitter.com/heel_mattq  Paul Mason : www.Dontpanic.com www.Dontpanic.co.uk www.Facebook.com/dontpanicblackpool www.Instagram.com/showmaster87  Paul Fletcher : www.instagram.com/fletchandguitars  Paul Farrell : www.Twitter.com/VitaminnP  Chris Wilson : www.Facebook.com/demolabstudio  Moog Gravett : https://www.facebook.com/TheBandRapscallion/ Andrew ‘The Guitar Geek’ Ferris :  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI5i6aBbINMIEkYW3b6olHg www.Instagram.com/theguitargeekyt 

BudgetPedalChap and Matt Quine go on a bit of a journey this week.  Warning up front: this week’s cast is Variax as fuck. We delve super  deep into the history and inner-workings of the Line6 Variax, so if it  isn’t of any interest, I suggest skipping until about 50 minutes in. As  we did get a bit carried away with this, this week’s cast is super long  and full of news, which is basically made of all of the guitars that I  want because there was very little actual news this week. The Steel  Panther saga concludes this week with a shock release. If you enjoy what  you hear, show some love by leaving a 5-star review on iTunes and share  the cast too!
