Yesterday I had the great pleasure of hosting two of my best guitar-nerd mates, Shaun Klinger and Jason Tong. Jason brought his new Evil Joe amp to show-and-tell and Shaun did the camerawork. We had a great laugh, as usual, and Jason's amp is a real lava-spitter (nice one, Joe!), as I hope the video conveys. Links below. Enjoy and thanks for watching.

*Strandberg, if you're watching, please reach out to Jason Tong as he desperately wants to add one of your Boden beasts to his own Youtube quiver.
