Guitar Nerds

Hello dear listener,

This week I'm joined by both Matt Knight and JD Short, and we're chatting all about our favourite things at this year's Brighton Guitar Show!

This year we were all forced to work on booths, so we saw a lot less than usual, but that certainly didn't stop us from spending loads of money on gear that we talked each other into buying!

Hello dear listener,

Welcome back! This week, Matt and I are talking all about Hellfest - a wonderful Heavy Metal festival in the heart of France! I got to go along with Ashdown, ESP and Ernie Ball, and I spent a bunch of time chatting with artists, watching bands, and getting to stand side-of-stage for a few performances, just so I could get a real look at their gear!

Hello dear listener,

Welcome to another episode of Guitar Nerds! This week, I'm joined by a new guest host, Maarten Cox. He's been a longtime listener, and someone I've kept in contact with to chat all things about guitar!

Recently, we've been talking about how there is very little European mainland representation in guitar podcasting, so we thought we'd have Maarten on to chat gear from a self professed bedroom player and ...
