James Tyler Studio Elite with Dann Huff | Ep. 23 - Golden Age of Gear
This week on The Golden Age of Gear, we’re thrilled to welcome a truly legendary guest — guitarist, producer, and friend, Dann Huff. With a career that spans decades and includes work on some of the biggest records in the world, Dann’s influence on modern music is impossible to overstate.
In this episode, we dive into some serious guitar talk, starting with Derek’s brand new James Tyler “White Shmear” and Dann’s beautifully crafted ’64 Strat replica built by Tyler. Dann shows us what makes the Tyler preamp so unique, and shares how James Tyler modded his original 1964 Strat during his days as an LA session player.
We also catch up with Dann about a major milestone in his own career — the release of his very first solo instrumental album, When Words Aren’t Enough, out now on Baked Alaska Records. It’s a powerful, expressive guitar record that you are going to love.
Join us for an episode full of amazing stories, deep gear knowledge, and the kind of wisdom only a true legend can offer.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
