The #1 Mistake That's Ruining Your Guitar Tone: Playing Too Hard! This important topic will be debated in the Guitargument of episode #020 of the ThroBak Guitar Lounge Podcast. 

Are you guilty of picking too hard and fretting strings with too much force? Would more nuanced playing improve your tone? Jon Gundry and Matthew Quail get to the bottom of what really matters when it comes to guitar tone in the Guitargument and Cool Down segments of this must watch episode.

First Jon Gundry has another  Player Grade Vintage Guitar example. In this episode Jon shares the strategy of guitar deal hunting by looking for vintage guitars that have pickups missing. A 1967 Gibson ES-335 is shown as an example of a vintage guitar in need of replacement ThroBak P.A.F. style reproduction pickups. Jon and Matthew play the same ES-335 equipped with ThroBak ER-Custom MXV P.A.F. style reproduction pickups in a ThroBak jam.

Matthew Quail then tries to stump Jon and the viewers with his electric guitar Rorschach Riffs. Listen to a combination of 4 signature riffs and pick out which classic Rock songs they are from.

Following this Matthew muses musical about the new David Gilmour IMAX concert movie.

Amp:
1979 Fender Deluxe Reverb
Pedal: Nobels ODR-1 Overdrive
