Who Should Attend

Anyone. Everyone.

Are you completely happy with your tone? Or, is there still some room to grow? If you feel like your tone could use a facelift, or even just a small tweak, then you’ll definitely want to attend this workshop.

Even if your tone is just “one small tweak away from perfection”, you could benefit from this workshop. Maybe Luke will identify what you’re missing.

What to Expect

Luke will cover some basic ideas and some advanced concepts all relating to tone. More specifically he will be looking into:

Guitar and amp matching: which pairing will give you the tone you want
Basic guitar and amp controls that shape your tone.
Setting up a digital amp: what are all those buttons for anyway? Microphone placement: making sure your tone is translated through the PA
After all the gear is in place, what difference does your playing make to your tone?
