Guitar Nerds
Great Gear to Start the Year!
Season 5, Ep. 1
•
Hello dear listener and welcome back!
It''s Season 5 of The Guitar Nerds Podcast, and Matt and I are kicking things off this week with a little look back at 2023, and the gear that we loved most. We'll take another look at our GOTY picks now that the dust has settled, and work out whether we made the right choices.
We'll be looking at the gear you've bought over Christmas (if you've shared it with us on The Guitar Nerds Group on Facebook), and we'll take a look at some of the hottest new releases over the last fortnight as we all gear up of NAMM 2024!
If you're looking for more Guitar Nerds stuff, then check out our YouTube, Instagram, and join the Facebook Group for our weekly podcast chatter!
