About this episode

Rhett shares tour experiences with The Midnight, discusses gear, and debates guitar buying strategies.

Rhett calls in from the road, one month into The Midnight's tour. Their drummer landed in the hospital mid-tour, a monitor engineer stepped in off the couch to save the show, and a fill-in arrived on 17 hours notice and crushed it. Also: Rhett blew up a Divided by 13 at Brooklyn Paramount and accidentally came home with a Kirk Hammett signature V.Back in Nashville, Zach is keeping Mythos running and trying not to think too hard about it.We dig into the Chase Bliss Big Time, Rhett unboxes the CXM 1978, and we settle the debate on whether beginners should factor in resale value when buying their first guitar. Plus a Dip the Rig from Chips in the French Pyrenees. Thanks so much to the sponsor of today's episode, Sweetwater!
