"five watt world" started out with me wrestling with the question of how much gear did I really need, after spending decades collecting guitars and buying and building amplifiers. As I dug down into what mattered to me most I realized that no one had made short histories of the iconic gear and so I made one about the Telecaster, and that proved very popular. As I'm always engaged by a good story I started making others. Now I try to alternate between a video on how to have less gear and histories that I hope will help people find the tone in their heads without having to buy everything that I went through. I hope that works for you. Thanks in advance, and thanks for being a part of five watt world. Keith
