This week The Guitar Nerds Podcast is sponsored by Shergold Guitars, Ernie Ball, Nobels Effects and Two Notes
Two Notes:
Introducing possibly the ultimate recording solution for guitarists everywhere, the Two Notes Captor X.
Playing your tube amp in a great sounding room with an exceptional choice of perfectly matched speaker cabinets and microphones is truly joyous and an unparalleled experience. The Torpedo Captor X is for tube amp lovers who crave this every time they play – no matter the environment.
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.
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.Ernie Ball:
One of the most popular Ernie Ball Music Man models, the John Petrucci Majesty, is being welcomed with 4 brand-new, striking finishes.
Now offered in Pink Sand, Red Phoenix, Smoked Pearl, and Ember Glow, the 2020 Majesty features a lightweight okoume body, signature DiMarzio Rainmaker and Dreamcatcher pickups, and an onboard piezo bridge system that gives the guitar a focused and highly versatile palette of tones.
Check them out here.
Nobels:
Speak to a lot of Nashville session greats about their favourite overdrive pedal, and plenty will point to one box, the ODR-1 from Nobels.
This legendary drive pedal now includes a built in bass cut allowing the player to tame some of the that wild low end whilst Single coils users can still access the harmonically rich full range of the ODR-1.
There really has never been a better time to own this absolute cult classic transparent overdrive pedal to deliver creamy, natural overdrive – Everything from pushed clean amp tones to gain filled stacks!

This week on The Guitar Nerds Podcast, Mark spills the beans about his youth as a saxophonist, Joe talks about his partially nude Performing Arts A Level and Matt has bought some new gear and built another pedalboard!
