The guys get together and talk about...gasp...live music. With musicians...and all manner of other stuff. Kalimar drops the blues philosophy...modes ergo sum. Instrument cables. And what we'll be sliding into next time.

- Pro Co EVLGCSLN-20 Evolution Silent Straight to Right Angle Instrument Cable - 20 foot | Sweetwater — Kalimar talked about learning about the connector you are buying with your instrument cable. It's often a good sign of the product. Look for quality connectors on your main instrument cables! G & H plugs Amphenol Switchcraft Neutrik This is a link to the cable Kalimar ended up buying
- Savage Guitarworks — Savage is a TrueFire Student who's active on their Discord Server. Really nice person.
- Line 6 Catalyst 60 60-watt 1 x 12-inch Combo Amplifier | Sweetwater — Kalimar's new amp. It's a dumbed down version of Helix modelling technology. It's plenty loud. For occasional gigs (read not getting tossed around in a van or having beer spilled on it) it's fantastic. It allows you to dial in a quieter sound at home and then just pick it up and take with you. It's very lightweight - about 24lbs. Some features: Attenuator (reduces speaker output volume while maintaining same tone) USB connection (so the amp can function as an audio interface) XLR line out (for connecting to a PA) headphone out audio in FX loop (allows you to also use your own fancy modeller and the Catalyst power amp and speaker)
