The Most Expensive Parts Guitar of All Time? - a podcast by Get Offset

Andrew couldn't join in this week, so Emily called up her friend Jim Bryson, a prize-winning Canadian singer-songwriter, musician, and producer! Some names of note Jim has worked with include Oh Susanna, Little Scream, The Skydiggers and Kalle Mattson.  He's toured with Kathleen Edwards, The Weakerthans and The Tragically Hip.

To kick it off Jim makes up ideas about what religion Andrew is (imagining he's his favorite kind of religion) and spends a lot of time and energy sounding as good as possible on the podcast. They talk about Guild Starfires, Fender Starcasters, building a custom Jazzmaster one part at a time, and the kinda-guitar kinda-mandocello Emily loaned to Jim.

Emily talks about the progress she's making on her custom mustang/bronco hybrid. Big ups to Sean Arbow from Gunstreet Wiring for helping Emily with that!
 

Emily gets Tanya Donelly confused with Juliana Hatfield and may never recover from the embarrassment. 
 
They spend probably too much time converting temperature between metric and imperial. They also mention toasted ravioli. 
 
Oh yeah, Jim also discusses his late cat's love of licking noses and its sort of inappropriate name.  
 
This week's episode is sponsored by Wrist Grips! Wrist Grips are compression wrist warps designed for musicians with wrist pain (like Jim and Emily).

The Mt. Hood fuzz pedal by Spruce Effects is now available! There will only be 10 ever sold in pink, so don’t wait too long to buy. The Mt. Hood has its humble beginnings as the first ever series of Big Muff, the Triangle version.

We ditched the tone control for a passive 3 band eq tone stack, added a presence control after the last gain stage for more tone shaping, put a footswitchable Germanium boost with gain and tone controls, and a diode switch to add an extra order of magnitude of tonal options.
