We kick things off with a brand-new show intro, powered by my original 2010 track “Rockin’” — now streaming on Spotify & Apple Music. 🎸🔥

Then I break out one of my all-time favorites: a Fender-style Strat loaded with a Mighty Mite neck, Seymour Duncan Screamin’ Demon humbucker, and the ultra-smooth VegaTrem VT1 — killer tuning stability, buttery feel, and massive tone. 🤘

Next, we hit the latest gear drops with more specs packed in:

🎸 Epiphone Mike Dirnt Signature Grabber G-3 Bass

The Grabber G-3 is BACK, rebuilt with Mike Dirnt’s exact stage specs:

Double-cutaway maple Grabber body

34" scale, 3-piece maple neck

Ebony or maple fretboard w/ abalone dots, 20 medium jumbo frets

Classic Grabber “V” headstock w/ open-gear clover tuners

Bone nut + Leo Quan Badass II bridge for attack, sustain & full adjustability

String-thru-body ferrule anchoring for maximum tone

Three Gibson G-3 pickups hand-made in Nashville

“Buck-and-a-half” 3-way pickup system:

Up = neck + middle (humbucker mode)

Middle = all 3 pickups

Down = middle + bridge (humbucker mode)

Master volume + tone, hum-free operation

Includes hardshell case

⚡ Line 6 Helix Stadium XL & Stadium XL Floor

The new flagship processors with more power, more control, and next-level modeling:

All-new Agoura modeling methodology

Hype Control — morph between authentic amp tone & idealized versions

Proxy cloud-based cloning for amps, cabs, & effects

Full compatibility with legacy Helix/HX presets

Large high-res touchscreen interface

High-contrast OLED scribble strips (XL only)

Focus View for quick parameter deep dives

Preset Audition with clip previews and info

Showcase automation & playback engine

Highly precise expression pedal w/ toe switch (XL only)

Wi-Fi + Bluetooth for wireless updates & editing

Free Helix Stadium Editor software

Finally, I power up the Line 6 Pod Go LIVE for on-air tone demos — swapping guitars, including my custom Squier “Tuxedo” Strat fresh off the workbench.

🔥 It’s a fully loaded episode — don’t miss it! 🎸

After that, I fire up my Line 6 Pod Go LIVE on the show for some real-time demos, switching between guitars, including my custom-built Squier Strat “Tuxedo” from the workbench.

And don’t forget — Workbench Wednesday is tomorrow! I’ll be fixing up another guitar live, so come hang out in the chat and help steer the build.
