Tom's comes from the land down under, and we had a late night chat all about his EP release: Echo Chamber Puppeteers. A cornucopia of orchestral emotive composition mixed with neoclassical guitar, it's truly wonderful to listen. As well as his method of tone creating for the EP and how much of it was inspired by Metallica's S&M album from the late 90s.

Capermote’s Debut EP “Echo Chamber Puppeteers” was released on all platforms on August 14th 2022. The EP was co-produced by fellow Australian prog composer James Norbert Ivanyi, and was mixed and mastered by Adam Bentley of Arch Echo.

Ben is a good close friend of mine, who I've got to know through Covid and Chapman Guitars.

Lee is a good friend of mine and has worked with some fantastic brands such as Boss, Victory, Wampler and many more! We talk about his guitar journey, being involved in one of the largest music communities online and the amazing work at Tonepedia!

Great to have Marcus on who's a good friend to all of us at Pedalboards of Doom, and believe it or not, a BIG gear fan. We spoke about his KTR, Love of Victory and how he made the product no-one asked for but needed!
