Funny enough, I’m moving to Maine next summer and have been considering a 388. Longshot, but if it’s still available then, let’s talk!

I remember a blues gig in my early 20s where the bass player (who was limited to start with) and the guitar player were smoking hash (or maybe the were tripping) and THEY thought the gig was amazing . In reality, they both played like shiiiiiiiiiit. The singer and I were not amused. Reminds me of t...

I’ve been staying (mostly) dry lately, and along with the added energy I have through the day, I’m really appreciating the clarity I have while trying to be creative. It takes a bit more intention to put myself in a creative place, but I’m lots more into it once there without anything to distract my...

Come Monday has one of the great choruses of all time.

Thanks, y’all!

The 3500 is similar to the Beyerdynamic M201

Haven’t used the Revox, but if I had to pick one mic for everything, it’d be a 201. I have a pair and could probably use another pair.

When her vocal comes in toward the end of Nothing but Heart, it’s such a powerful, beautiful moment that gives me goosebumps, every single time.

I love the sound of a well-tuned non-ported bass drum. There’s something about the way the note kind of swells that’s just perfect to me. Think John Convertino. That said, in my limited and humble experience, it’s easier to make a ported drum sound non-ported than vice versa, given dampening, tuning...
