First they talk about what they're up to now, mentioning the band Leprous, Tim's project -Red Side Visible, and some arrangements Adam is working. Then we get into the main topic, where we discuss how a high quality instrument to start out might actually give a huge advantage and having cheaper instruments might really prevent you from ascending into some of the more "competitive" musician landscapes.

Which leads to discussion about recording your guitar... you are responsible for getting the sound you want, don't expect the sound engineer to nail it down. The main topic of the day... What kind of guitarist to you aim for? Are you the type that is working to mimic any style? Your sort of studio ace, hired gun work? O ..read more
