  • We invited Tyler Larson, aka ‪@MusicisWin‬, to his local GC in Nashville to scope out Spring Guitar-A-Thon 2023 and turn a $500 budget into awesome guitar rig upgrades. Rather than just grabbing a new amp or guitar, Tyler checked out strings, pedals and straps, important pieces that can have a big impact on your setup. As Tyler says, "It's not just about 'perfecting your tone'; it's about having fun!"

      I wonder what the limit is when it comes to upgrading a rig, or when instead of upgrading it, it will be downgrading it.

      My DigiTech Element Element XP, Donner Looper Pedal and Line 6 Spider 112 Red Face 50 watt Amp are all that I need. Although I do have fourteen guitars, a violin (Beatles) bass, banjo, mandolin, ukulele, a cigar box guitar and an Appalachian dulcimer. Oh, and an electric keyboard.

    Honestly for a home guitarist.. Line 6 pod go is your best bang for buck. Great budget modeller which will do pretty much everything you need as a home guitarist. There are amazing patches to download for free online and running it into some half decent speakers or headphones will really be all you need.

    I own that MXR pedal and you missed some pieces to it. It's got modulation AND it's got Fuzz. It is a wicked sounding thing. And, with a cheap expression pedal, you can have two settings and flip between them.

    Must be nice to just grab a guitar off the wall and try it. I never go to ours anymore because they’re all locked (even the bottom row) and someone has to track down a set of keys whenever you want to try one. I was there over half an hour and was only able to try one guitar.
