Gainstaging and other Patreon Questions | Dipped In Tone Podcast

On today's episode, Rhett, Zach, and Addison dig into a stack of Patreon questions: how to properly gainstage your drive pedals into an amp without going harsh and farty, whether the Jazzmaster's bridge design cost it the throne from the Stratocaster, and the non-gear skills every guitar player should be building (learn to solder, learn to play bass, record yourself). Plus, an update on our live show at Fretboard Summit in Chicago, and we rate a viewer's rig — and it does not go well./ JOIN US ON PATREON:   / dippedintone   MERCH: https://www.dippedintone.com/merch FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM:   / dippedintone   DIPPED IN TONE IS: Rhett Shull https://www.rhettshull.com Zach Broyles / Mythos Pedals https://mythospedals.com & https://highvoltageguitars.com Produced & Edited by Addison!   / addisonsauvan   00:00:00 Intro 00:00:35 Directionally challenged 00:05:30 E-Bikes 00:06:25 Addison Update 00:07:47 Zach Update 00:10:10 Rhett Update 00:11:48 We’re going to be at Fretboard Summit! 00:15:16 Thanks so much Patrons! 00:16:23 HOT TAKE 00:24:20 Gain Staging Overdrives 00:30:24 Being careful with wet effects 00:36:23 In a recording situation 00:37:04 When things get harsh 00:39:56 Learning your gear 00:40:50 Overlooked skills guitar players should work on 00:43:30 Troubleshooting 00:44:10 Learning to setup your instrument 00:45:25 Listen to your bandmates 00:46:16 Learn how to solder 00:48:09 Get a bass! 00:49:45 Rig Dip 01:00:52 Zach’s Shill 01:01:51 Rhett’s Shill 01:04:16 Addison’s Shill 01:06:51 Join us on Patreon BUY COOL GEAR (Affiliate Links): Universal Audio Enigmatic - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/o42Mve Fender Triple Caster - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/qzRMvq Suhr Classic S Antique - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/DyEomG Benson Delay - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/jeEb4b Boss Roland DM-101 - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/K0Nj5A TC 2290 - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/e1oz26 Universal Audio Volt 876 - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/jeko9M Boss Katana 50 Gen3 - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/DyEom5 Shure 545 (new production) - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/ravMyj Echo Fix EFX3 - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/APzZMK Helix Stadium - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/LKVnJa
