Today we're joined by Chris Benson of Benson Amps. We're catching up with him after a busy year of releases and Benson Fest, and talking with him about the Bogen Challenger PA that became the first Monarch. This one's a casual conversation, where we take roughly an hour before we get to the object, distracted along the way by discussion of how we interact with the internet, breaking assumptions about the sound of any given component, taking time to play the devices we've created, hot soldering, and getting some absolute gems of wisdom from Chris. It's a great time with our favorite amp builder, now dive on in!
That's right, this week it's just your hosts with the mosts talkin ghosts. Just kidding, this episode's pretty low on tricks and treats and frights and whatnot, but we did get some voicemails about spooky gear and we go off on some tangents from there. We're pretty confident this is the only podcast in the world that links discussion of what makes for a scary sound with the specifics of the treadle action on a Danelectro Shift Daddy, so if that's up your alley, boy have you landed in the right place. We also talk about dreams and other inevitabilities. Dive in!
