Do You Use Too Many Pedals?

This week's episode feels more like a therapy session than a guitar tutorial, but that's not necessarily bad. Long story short: Josh discovers that you really can get some truly amazing sounds out of a minimalist pedalboard, thanks entirely to friend of the show (and Mythos Pedals founder) Zach Broyles.
