553 - The state of the pedal industry in 2025 and are guitars getting more expensive?

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 553 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - The state of the pedal industry in 2025 and are guitars getting more expensive?  Blake has another special hat and Richard has Black Sabbath FOMO before making some eggs-asperatingly poor jokes and discussing coffee. Josh Scott of JHS has written a great substack article about the state of the pedal industry and Richard misses the point as he shows off his ink pens. The guys then talk about the article and the guys chat about how they see the state of the market currently. Richard predicts that the prices of guitars are gong to climb up and Brian struggles to stay awake so starts to look at the all new cast iron Plumes and Blumes. JHS have released an Oil Can delay too and Richard learns about the original mechanical unit and his mind is audibly blown.  Richard also causes Brian to foam at the mouth before discussing what he thinks the future for aging podcasters may be. Brian confesses to some incredibly bizarre nocturnal activities and Richard attempts to use science before Blake gets into a fight. Does the perfect guitar neck exist? The guys asks the question and then some bizarre other questions.
