Guitar Nerds
Redbeard Effects Honey Badger & Other NAMM News
This episode of Guitar Nerds is brought to you by Shergold Guitars and their latest electric guitar, the Provocateur!
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.
This week on The Guitar Nerds Podcast, Joe, Mark and Matt talk about all the incredibly exciting new releases due at Winter NAMM 2020.
The gang take an exclusive look at the new pedal from Redbeard, the Honey Badger; an octave fuzz with a massive amount of headroom and -2 octave sub!
The 3 hosts also tackle the new Gibson and Epiphone line for 2020, and most exciting of all, the new incredibly affordable Vintage made Joe Doe guitars.
