Upgrade your guitar with ThroBak Pickups: https://www.throbak.com/
Is your bad guitar tone caused by the wrong guitar or the wrong pickups? In ThroBak Guitar Lounge Podcast Episode 030, Jon Gundry and Matthew Quail break down one of the most common questions players ask: Should you buy the right guitar, or buy the right pickups?
📬 Viewer Mail & Vintage Gear Deep Dive
The episode kicks off with Jon answering viewer questions, followed by another Player Grade Vintage segment. Jon and Matthew explore the 1979 Fender Deluxe Reverb, discussing why it has a bad reputation among some players—and why pros like Marty Stuart swear by it. How can one amp be both underrated and iconic? We explain.
⚔️ Guitargument: Right Guitar vs Right Pickups
Matthew argues that pickups are the perfect tool to tailor and refine your tone, while Jon insists the guitar itself is the real culprit behind bad sound. Who’s right? Tune in to hear the debate.
😌 Cool Down + Black Friday Gear
In the Cool Down segment, Jon reveals his new Fender Squier Telecaster Custom, proving great guitars don’t have to cost a fortune and are deserving of great guitar pickup upgrades.
🎵 Rorschach Riffs + Musical Musings
Matthew challenges Jon and the audience with four new Rorschach Riffs, followed by his musical musings on concert films and why they matter to guitarists.
