Who’s hungry for some seasoned beef? Maybe a meatball? Gather ‘round, Gearbuddies, this one is spicy.

For the main topics this week, Hank gets into some personal gear news with vintage VT40 repairs and the Bogner Harlow earning a (semi)permanent place of pride on his pedalboard. The dudes also take a quick trip to Scandinavia to talk about Karl “Slim” Burgudd, perhaps the coolest dude you’ve never heard of, and the Swede Patch 2000, perhaps the original guitar synth.

Also discussed: AI powered drum machine plugin Emergent Drums from Audialab, Ibanez Pentatone pedal, scam songs, Reverb local pickups and balls, vintage Gibson EB-0, RIP Jeff Beck, cringe alert, the secret Southern Rock wang stick, and Weird: The Weird Al Yankovic Story.

Suckin’ on brass all day.
