Welcome to the show! ’Tis once again a day for slightly random challenges. In this episode, the slightly random factor is Country Of Origin. Each of us selects one country from a possible nine - excluding the USA, UK and Australia – whereupon we are required to put together a rig hailing from that nation.
Four pedals, one guitar, one amp. There is a whole convoluted system of point scoring that’s too boring to explain here, but you get the idea: make a rig from the country of… That’s countrywang!

If you haven’t turned off already to go and watch something more beneficial to your life and everyone around you... please enjoy the show!
