Some right royal rigs to help your Accession To The Tone!
Blimey. Here we are during the celebration weekend for the coronation of King Charles III of the United Kingdom. So what better excuse for a royal-themed challenge show?! We must both choose up to five things and one guitar that are either royal- or heraldic-themed… in order to demonstrate some key concepts of guitar tone. What could possibly go right?
Who shall be crowned King Of Tone, and who will be sent to the Tower?
Enjoy the show…
