One Guitar, One Amp, No Pedals Challenge – Dan Vs Mick

Back to basics with a super simple rig – what will they choose?

Welcome to the show! Like it or loathe it, there remains a kind of noble dignity associated with the simplicity of a guitar-cable-amp rig. No fancy pedals, no cheating with MIDI and no other complication to interrupt the pure musical flow of self-expression.
Or at least that’s how a lot of people see it.
In this episode then, we grab that particular nostalgic chestnut by the horns by choosing just One Guitar & One Amp to see if we can cover a range of tones. And while we’re at it, how about we forget about channel switching and multi-mode amps too?
Enjoy the show!
