514 - The Wampler Mofetta, The Beach Boys, and Jay Leonard J

Brian, Blake, and Richard are joined by the legendary Jay Leonard J for Episode 514 of the Chasing Tone Podcast

We start off with some exclusive hair clipping tips from the super talented Jay Leonard J and this eventually turns into a discussion about gain clipping and Wampler's latest release, the Wampler Mofetta. Brian had an idea one day. He loved the Ibanez MT-10 Mostortion but wondered what would happen if he used MOSFETS for clipping. The Mofetta is the culmination of his rumination! 

Brian asks Jay about his creative process when it comes to pedal demos and he gives us an awesome candid insight into his flow. Is the Tubescreamer the ultimate wingman pedal? Jay thinks so and has a compelling case to consider and Blake is in an educating mood. Are you a fan of the Beach Boys? A number of cool products were released in the last week that were officially licensed by the Beach Boys and the guys discuss them.

Richard asks Jay about his musical career and he tells us a wonderful tale of how it all began with a special guitar. Jay takes us on an international journey with his early career before he tells us about how an unconventional piece of equipment became part of his demo rig and how he became a stunt double for the top martial artist in Hong Kong.

You are not going to want to miss this episode, Jay is hilarious and hugely interesting, and he joins us on Patreon too for some amazing stories that involve international diplomatic peril!
