🎸🔥 NEW Episode of Talking Guitars & Music News! 🔥🎸

This week, it’s a full-on gear & memory lane jam session! I kick things off by showing off my brand-new guitar stand and giving you a fresh look at the rearranged studio—the guitars have never looked better. We jump right into guitar talk, and I reveal my latest impulse buy: an Ernie Ball red guitar strap (which, of course, I quickly realized I didn’t even need 😅). That leads to a deep dive into my guitar strap collection, many of which were still attached to guitars now proudly displayed on the new stands.

I also bring out my Danelectro Eric Clapton model for a close-up, while Ron shares stories about the Seymour Duncan pickups in his guitars. From there, we take a nostalgic turn—sharing memories from our old bands.

I dig into my time with The May Fire, showing never-before-seen photos & videos from gigs at Hollywood, Chicago, SXSW & Antone's Nightclub in Austin, Silver Lake Lounge in LA, and Bottom of the Hill in San Francisco. I even break out a couple of my stage warriors from those days: my 1983 Hamer A5 Phantom and my Fender Telecaster ’72 Reissue Custom.

Ron brings the heat with photos from his previous band, and we wrap up with a heartfelt trip down rock ’n’ roll memory lane. 🎶🔥

Talking Guitars: New 🎸Stand, Strap Collection, Danelectro Clapton, Band Memories & More! 8/8/25

🎸🔥 Straturday Night was jam-packed this week!
Our friend Music Therapy Laz checked in live from the Creed / Mammoth WVH show at Shoreline Amphitheatre 🎤🎶 — we even got to hear some of the concert!

From there, Ron spotted a Randall RG1503-212 combo amp at a pawn shop and had his GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) fully activated 🤘. That sparked a debate on big amps vs. small amps, plus Ron showed off some of his killer Jackson guitars.

I shared live footage of The May Fire rocking Walnut Creek, CA, and busted out my long-forgotten Hamer Phantom A5 — untouched since 2009 with rusted strings! 🕰️🪓 Later, I restrung it and jammed hard… turns out it still shreds! I even compared my black, red, and white Phantom A5s back-to-back.

We also looked back at footage from my guest spot with PAR AVION at Tiki Tom’s in 2022 🎵🎸.

At the workbench, Ron stained an Ibanez-style neck darker, sanded a Strat body for Bay Area Rich (soon to be a Buddy Guy polka-dot special 🎯), while I gave the Phantom a full revival before letting it rip.

We wrapped with vintage 2009 Ustream footage — the last time I played the guitar I thought was broken for over a decade. Man… time flies!
