Ep. 116 - Flipping Out

Gather ‘round, ye music lovers, for this episode is a true headbanger. This week your Gearbuds explore the ethics of gearflipping with some recent examples: Julien’s auctions, the Squier Paranormal series, the Boss Waza TB-2W Tonebender, the Drolo Stetch Weaver, and Joe Bonamassa selling a (truly wild) NFT. Also discussed: Earthworks measurement mics, transferring 78 RPM records, Acustica Sienna, inclusive audio language, the audacity of Audacity, Sam Porter’s formerly Ugly Guitar (go see Kali Masi on tour), Rick Laird, and Paul McCartney’s “death” in 1966? Crank the perfection slider.
