The other John Browne
You're in the right place, fellow guitar gear nerd!
Hi, my name is John Browne . No, not that guy but this is my real name.
I'm a test engineer by trade and a passionate guitar gear nerd.
My mission statement: I want to make the videos I would liked to have seen when I was looking for gear. I have found that most amps, pedals, speakers or guitars sound pretty good in a given youtube demo but once you have it in your home with your other gear you might hear things you didn't hear before. Why? Because the demo(s) you heard lacked a reference for you to listen to. That's why (in most cases) I try to provide a reference for you to compare whatever I am demoing to.
I've got a bunch of experiments I want to do. You'll find them here sooner or later!
