  When Josh held up the box, the "He has the box" jingle played in my head at MAX VOLUME

  "....WE WENT TO THE MOON... Are you telling me we can't make a part for an overdrive pedal?"  Josh is a national treasure.

  Sad not hearing “He has the box” at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKAWkYIuTwo&amp;t=69">1:09</a>

  “Please play guitar” is the best gear advice I’ve heard in a long time.

  I love how much fun you can tell Josh is having. Like if he weren&apos;t going this for Reverb he&apos;d be explaining this to random people at a bar or something

  “If it sounds good, it is good”<br><br>A lot of people really need to learn this

  If people played their guitars as much as they argue about all this crap none of it would matter because they’d sound good through anything they plug into.

  Josh really needs to have his own Drunk History episode where he can let loose about pedals. Compulsory viewing.

  &quot;Do you think we got WORSE at building these?&quot; is my default response to my vintage-obsessed friends who automatically believe &quot;vintage is more gooder&quot; on everything.

  Josh Scott. National Treasure. A combination of Mr. Roger&apos;s and Ferris Bueler. I salute you sir. Thank you Reverb for doing this. You guys make great business partners.

  I’ve recently got my answer to the “Tone is in the fingers” question. During quarantine I’ve listened to hundreds of voice memos of myself from across the years, on electric, acoustic, single coil, humbuckers, fuzz, tubescreamers, this delay, that delay, etc. and I finally know what I sound like regardless what I play. I will say I needed to “play around” all those tones, and I’ve found some tones that help me play more “like myself” than others. It’s a weird thing: when you find your right pedals and right rig, it just sounds like you and you stop thinking about gear.
