Tone. At Home.
From your fingers to your ears and everything in between – anything to do with how tone gets made.
Brian Wampler has posted a great video, walking us all through his exact recording process for the amps and pedals in his videos.
It’s incredibly generous of Brian to share this with us. For many YouTubers and professional musicians, recorded sound quality is a competitive advantage – and teaching these techniques is a source of income too.

Johan Segeborn is back – and his beard almost is too – with another of his mad science experiments about tone.
Ah, tonewood – and the endless debate of whether wood makes a difference or not. (It does, and so do other things.)
This time, Johan tries an experiment with pickups. How microphonic are they, and does that explain why tonewood makes a difference?

Brian Wampler makes great pedals. He also makes great videos about pedals, amps, tone, and the guitar signal chain.
In this short video, he addresses a common question that crops up in Wampler’s after-sales support: why does the tone get a lot brighter when you add another pedal to the chain?
As Brian covers, the real problem is that the signal chain was artificially dark and dull in the first place. The culprit? Pedals that aren’t true bypass, and that don’t have an internal buffer. Watch the video for the full explanation.
