Sweetwater

And it turns out that they didn't have to look too far from home.

The band has officially welcomed New Jersey natives Justin Sargent as their new frontman after holding open auditions with the help of Sweetwater.

Guitarist Dave Snake Sabo says the moment Justin walked into the room, they pretty much knew that he was the guy.

And bassist Rachel Bolin says hearing him sing completely blew him away.

But who's eating it all? It can't just be Joanna.

My girlfriend loves candy corn.

Ooh, Amy Jo from Sweetwater, Texas, listening to us, says, eating candy corn right now, listening to you guys.

Hell yeah.

We'd love to have you here.

I also work at Sweetwater Sound.

You know, if you've heard of us as a bass player, you may have.

Tell me more about

Sweetwater Sound.

Is that a recording studio?

We do have a recording studio.

You move into another area, the vocals are harsh, too bright.

But most of the time, if it's a decent auditorium, if it's actually an auditorium that was made for sound quality, there's an excellent example of this down in Sweetwater, Sweetwater facilities down in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Of course, there are things they can do now that are even better, but there's...

There's actually active noise reduction within auditoriums.

The last comment is a update.

We have a Sweetwater candy update.

Oh, I think I saw a little glimpse of this coming.

Yes, this is very

important.

We talked about this in the past that Sweetwater was falling down on the job and they were not giving a good selection of candy in their little bag of candy.

That's where it all starts.

That's why people order from Sweetwater.

the way manufacturing has changed, everybody's just hurrying up.

Everybody's just trying to get the guitars out the door, out the door, out the door, because so many things have factored into their equation of price point, which is shipping costs, shipping times, you know, companies now, look, the problem, the problem with having companies like Guitar Center and Sweetwater and Toman, the big guys, dominate the markets, is that unlike mom and pops that would put in orders and patiently wait for the day when the inventory would show up, like we used to do, because we had no control over that.

You know, you'd go, hey, where's our guitars? And they're like, they're coming.

And I'm like, okay.

Let me just show you something.

I told you guys I talked to companies about this because a lot of companies are having trouble understanding this.

So let me show you Tekton in a way maybe that the industry sees it and you guys don't, okay? So I'm on the Sweetwater website.

We're gonna be looking at the Tekton series and let me show you why it doesn't make sense.
