Tom Bukovac Kemper Profiles by 3rd Power | Leigh Guitars - Phoenix
Hi, 👋 Welcome to The Guitaring Show. Thanks for tuning in!
In this weeks episode, I take a look at the Tom Bukovac Kemper Profiles by 3rd Power Amplification. These profiles belong to the Hitmakers Volume One Kemper Profile Pack and they are killer! From cleanish to pushed amp tones, the Hitmaker Volume One pack is a collection of over 70 profiles, expertly capturing the sound of three prized amps belonging to Nashville session man, Tom Bukovac.
Amps used are:
1) 1968 Marshall 100W Super Bass
2) 1968 Silver-face Fender Princeton 110
3) 1990 Matchless C30
If you own a Kemper these profiles are well worth a look. They have fast become my go-to profiles not only because they sound and feel amazing but they require little to no tweaking. I'm still learning my way around the Kemper Profiler so having some plug n' play profiles ready to go is good news :)
The guitar I'm using is the fabulous sounding Phoenix by Leigh Guitars, fitted with McNelly Sparkletrons, and boy do they sparkle!
👇Which profile or amp was your favourite?👇

Justin Yap - Guitarist | How To Be a Better Musician | Blues Philosophy
Hi, 👋 Welcome to The Guitaring Show. Thanks for tuning in!
Justin Yap is a Melbourne blues, soul and funk guitarist. He is a founding member of the hard-working band Rambal and he's a super-nice guy. What was meant to be a crash-course in playing the blues turned into something way more compelling!
In a crude attempt to get me 'gig ready' for a Blues jam I decided to get Justin into The Guitaring Show HQ to give me some killer tips that I could take to the stage. It was a simple idea. A simple idea wrapped inside my selfish motives to be a better blues guitarist! But Justin saw through my pathetic ruse. I soon learned that the true mark of a great player is not simply the notes played, but the intention to deliver a performance that compels a response from the listener based on the emotions that fuelled each note. Or to put it more simply, to 'be in the moment'.
So come with me on this journey as I once again get schooled on how to be a better guitarist and musician!

Hi, 👋 Welcome to The Guitaring Show. Thanks for tuning in!
Today we're trying to keep up with Anthony Taylor, country music guitarist as he blazes through some crazy licks and country riffs!
Last week Anthony was kind enough to stick around to show me how he constructs his country guitar solos. He has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, as you will see! I tried hard to keep up, hoping some of the chicken pickin' goodness would rub off on me :)
Turns out, I've got a lot of work to do!

Anthony Taylor Country Music - Chicken Pickin Good!
Hi, 👋 Welcome to The Guitaring Show. Thanks for tuning in!
Today we're chatting with Anthony Taylor, country music guitarist and singer.
It was a sweltering day in early February when I met Anthony in The Guitaring Show car park. I had been trying to tee up this interview for sometime but the touring musician can be a very elusive breed! I've known Anthony for quite a few years but I reckon this was the longest we have ever chatted, specifically about his life as a session and touring musician.
I honestly had a blast and found the discussion super interesting. We got to chat about his guitar gear, the importance of compression to his sound, what makes a gig great plus much, much more. Anthony really is one of the best country pickers going 'round.
Enjoy the video!

Welcome and thanks for tuning in to The Guitaring Show! Please subscribe to our channel! The audio for this episode was lifted from our YouTube show.
When I was a teenager I had only one pedal...for years. A Boss DS-1 and a Gorilla amp. Yes it was called a Gorilla?!? It was rubbish.
So when my son left his pedals lying all around the house I decided to take them and see if he noticed. That was four weeks ago. He still hasn’t said anything.
This is the episode that followed the pedal-napping!

This is our final instalmentand pedal of our time at the Melbourne Guitar Show earlier this year. In today's episode, we chat to the man behind Lovell Music Lab, Tim Lovell. Having just landed in the country weeks prior to this event, it's no surprise that we hadn't heard of the Lovell brand. But Tim is back in Melbourne after establishing his business in Columbia and it appears he's been very busy!
We were impressed by the practical solutions built into his amp and pedal designs. Tim has really thought things through without over complicating the products.

Did you know that October 22 is Phelan-McDermid Syndrome Awareness Day? #PMSAwarenessDay
Phelan-McDermid Syndrome is a rare genetic condition caused by a deletion or structural change of the terminal end of chromosome 22 in the 22q13 region. It can also be caused by a mutation of the SHANK3 gene. PMS is sometimes called 22q13 Deletion Syndrome. It’s estimated that 1 percent of all people with autism have Phelan-McDermid Syndrome. The symptoms of PMS vary and can cause a wide range of medical, intellectual, and behavioural challenges. The most common characteristics are intellectual disability, delayed or absent speech, low muscle tone, motor delays, and epilepsy.
There is no cure or treatment specifically for PMS. For more information about PMS, go to www.pmsf.org or contact the PMS Foundation at info@pmsf.org. In Australia, you can visit www.pmsfaustralia.org.au

A Lost Amp Reborn, The Legend of the Rex Bassking

After an extended break we're back with Season Two. Hooray!
A Lost Amp Reborn, The Legend of the Rex Bassking
In today's episode, we put two Australian made Rex Bassking amplifiers through their paces as we try to recapture the sound of Aussie Rock from the late 60's and 70's.
Both these amps have been rebuilt and redesigned based on the original circuits using the original chassis and they are incredible amps. Clean, detailed and posessing a sound that is unlike any modern amp we've played. Considering they're virtually a new amp, with new upgraded components they sound like they're from a different era.
'The Bassking is a simple but undeniably classy looking combo. The two channels, Bass and Normal, each have their own dedicated pair of inputs, and controls for volume, bass and treble. A Celestion G12H twelve inch speaker has been fitted as part of the redesign. High quality electrolytic capacitors have been fitted, and matched valves from Electro Harmonix form the heart of the amp’s power and tone. The Bassking is driven by two 12AX7EH valves in the preamp and two EL84EH valves in the power section.'

Chime MK II Part Two | EP Booster | AC Booster | Ibanez TS9
We loved the new Pettyjohn Chime MK II so much that we couldn’t help but try it out with some common boost pedals. Our mission, should we choose to accept it (and we did) was to turn down the onboard boost in the Chime MK II and run a boost pedal into it. We also wanted to hear a boost post-Chime. The Chime came up trumps no matter what we threw at it, including running overdrive before and after the Chime.
This was a fun episode and is the final episode for Season One. We will be having a short break, returning in a few weeks time for Season Two of The Guitaring Show.

Today we put the Pettyjohn Chime MK II through its paces and compare it to the much-loved Chime. The Chime MK II has some major audiophile upgrades, silent soft-touch switching, higher headroom and while the drive circuit remains largely unchanged, you can now turn off the clipping via an internal toggle switch. Very cool!
The Chime MK II is a magnificent pedal in every way.
