No guitar is safe.

Here we are, episode 141, and I'm Jude Gold.

This is No Guitar is Safe, and I'm thrilled to have a friend and also one of my favorite rock guitar players, Doug Raport raps man he's on the show

that's Doug playing on what might be the shreddingest TV commercial of all time.

We'll get into that and so much more, including his years with Edgar Winter.

He's Edgar Winter's lead guitar player and his solo stuff.

And I can't thank Focus Right enough for bringing us Doug today.

Focus Right interfaces have everything you need, including

high z instrument inputs designed to handle the hottest pickups without clipping or creating unwanted

distortion. And did you know that all focused right interfaces have J-FET guitar inputs? That makes guitar

and bass punch when you're plugging in direct. They also have gain halos around the

gain controls. That's a cool phrase, right? My new band's going to be called the gain

halos. They glow green when you have a strong signal, but they also helpfully turn red if you're

clipping. So you always know where you're at with your gain levels and many interfaces

like the Scarlett series have this easy start tool that gets

you up and running in moments the second you plug in a new interface.

You need to get dialed and start creating music.

That's one word FocusRite with right spelled R-I-T-E.

All right, let's rev up the Worley Bird and head up north to plug in with Doug Rappaport.

No, guitar is safe.
