The Tone Control

• Curling Story 00:12:58
• Derek went to a concert 00:15:42
  • The guitarist from Volbeat plays weird
  • There wasn’t a guitar amp to be seen all night

New Boss RE-2 Space Echo leak?? (stab: WA Bellwether) 00:22:36

• We don’t really dig in with pedal leaks on this show, but I so want this to be real.
• The RE-201 Space Echo is one of the famed tape echo units, they sound great. Super cool. Tons of mojo.
• The RE-20 has been out for years. One of those old Boss double wide pedals. Still very cool
• But the RE-2? Put that shit in a regular boss enclosure? Let’s do it.

Pedal Genie 00:29:09

• Analogman Sun Face $195
• Becos TS8-JZ Ziffer Jordan Ziff Signature Overdrive €149

GTRS Guitars (stab: MS Holy Dove) 00:52:38

• S-style guitars with effects by Mooer
• The second tone pot has a push/push that contains effects combos, amp sim, cab sim, etc.
• You can go into a PA with it, straight into headphones, or into a regular amp, or you can turn it off entirely and have a regular guitar
• Runs on a battery that charges over USB-C
• There’s an app to change effects and parameters and simple operation on the guitar itself. Push to change effects, turn the knob to increase the amount of effect.
• Can also get a small four button controller to change effects like a pedal.
• Do we need this? Is this cool? Is the controller thing antithetical to the whole idea?

Suggestion of the Week (stab: Hungry Robot Borderland) 01:13:49

• Ghost of Tsushima
