Welcome to GTN

At the Guitar Tone Network our aim is to provide you, our podcast listeners, with unbiased information about guitars, amplifiers, and everything in the signal chain. This information will help you develop educated opinions and make informed decisions when considering components for your guitar rig.
We value the 'N' in GTN greatly, and hope to network with experts in various fields related to Guitar Tone. The GTN podcast & website is our way to share their knowledge with you.

There are many choices when considering the gear for your rig. However, the combinations become nearly infinite when dialing your tone with any rig configuration; ranging from subtle to profound. Each guitar player's search for tone is a personal one. The bottom line is; we all want to sound good whether it's Blues, Country, Jazz, Rock, or Metal.
