Origin Effects & A Mini Quiz

Ep. 262
•

Guitar Nerds is brought to you in association with Shergold Guitars, Ernie Ball, and KMA Audio Machines.


Shergold Guitars:

Celebrated by Total Guitar Magazine as “one of the most refined single-cuts on the market, with endlessly satisfying playability and a flawless set of tones”, the Shergold Provocateur combines remarkable specification with a retro vibe for a unique and bona fide rock guitar.


From the brand that once powered the likes of Joy Division and is now championed by modern guitar pioneers And So I Watch You From Afar and many others comes a fresh and exciting range of electric guitars.


Designed by legendary British guitar luthier Patrick James Eggle and featuring a roasted mahogany neck and a solid mahogany body loaded with USA-made Seymour Duncan pickups, it’s easy to see why Guitarist Magazine officially voted the Provocateur one the ‘Best Electrics of 2019’.


You can find your nearest Shergold dealer here … And if you’re not in the UK, don’t fear, many UK based Shergold dealers have super awesome international shipping options to guarantee your Shergold will make it to you in the most far-flung of places.


New Ernie Ball Slinky Strings:

Ernie Ball is excited to announce that the highly anticipated VPJR Tuner pedal is here. It's the perfect combination 2-in-1 pedal offering precise volume control with an enhanced definition digital tuner. The pedal features a fast and accurate chromatic tuner with a graphic volume display that is visually attractive and easy to operate.


The tuner can be calibrated to a variety of ideal reference pitches and its compact, rugged design consists of aluminum housing and features a stronger, more durable PVC coated Kevlar cord ensuring consistent tension throughout the foot sweep. Available in Silver, Red, White, and Black click here to learn more.


KMA Audio Machines:

KMA Audio Machines are hand-made from start to finish and with an unwavering passion for perfection, each and every pedal is designed using custom double- sided PCBs, assembled, silk-screened, tested and numbered by hand in their own workshop, all of which guarantees high-quality, while the use of a virtually indestructible powder-coated die-cast enclosure ensures maximum durability.


This week on The Guitar Nerds Podcast Joe has designed a mini quiz to challenge one of the hosts each week for the next 3 weeks. Matt has discovered just how incredibly good the Origin Effects Revival Trem is and Jay and Mark are missing football and wrestling.
