Absolute Guitar Annihilation

This week we talk about a super serious current event: Gibson DESTROYING GUITARS!!!  We chat with Sam Miller from Deering Banjos, a man who has some experience with quality control and absolute instrument destruction, about what this really means. Is instrument destruction reasonable? Should those guitars have been donated? How many guitars are really too messed up to fix? SO MANY QUESTIONS! We also name drop, but not nearly as much as Emily would like.  The Mt. Hood fuzz pedal by Spruce Effects is now available! There will only be 10 ever sold in pink, so don’t wait too long to buy. The Mt. Hood has its humble beginnings as the first ever series of Big Muff, the Triangle version. Get it for the special price of $199 with the code GETOFFSET at checkout. We ditched the tone control for a passive 3 band eq tone stack, added a presence control after the last gain stage for more tone shaping, put a footswitchable Germanium boost with gain and tone controls, and a diode switch to add an extra order of magnitude of tonal options.  We have merch! Get some, get SOME.
