Are guitar players overthinking tone? I sat down with Euge Valovirta and Kristian Kohle for TONE TAKES, where we tackle some of the most controversial opinions in the guitar and metal world. Does tonewood actually matter? Does EverTune ruin guitar tone? Are tube amps still better than modelers? And is the legendary Boss Metal Zone actually a good pedal? Armed with green and red agree/disagree paddles, we get into some serious guitar nerd territory. Let us know in the comments which takes you agree with, and which ones are complete bullshit.
