Show Notes
When somebody asks what you do for a living, sometimes the easiest answer is simply... “guitar.”
This week, Emily Harris of Get Offset returns for a long overdue catch-up! We dig into her journey from podcasting to gear demos, the changing landscape of guitar YouTube, and how she’s pieced together a career around the stuff she loves. Along the way, Emily explains how French pastry videos inspired her guitar interview series and why enjoying the process matters when the algorithm decides to ignore your hard work.
We also get into the guitars we actually reach for, her surprisingly practical gigging pedalboard, and the experience of plugging an Acoustasonic into a wall of Marshall stacks. Plus, stories from her days working Formula 1 events, my questionable ability to visit guitar stores without buying something, and her band Golden West’s forthcoming album.
Naturally, there’s also hot sauce, car trouble, and a little pizza talk. We covered a lot of ground on this one!

More from The Tone Mob Podcast
My buddy Philip Carter from the 40 Watt Podcast is back, and this one started the way a lot of our conversations do... We were talking about guitars before hitting record and eventually realized we should probably be recording this nonsense.
Shelby Pollard of Black Bobbin is back on the show, and apparently we had some things to work through.
Zoe’s path into guitar building is a pretty fascinating one. She grew up surrounded by artists, started out as a drummer, dove deep into piano and composition, and at one point thought she might pursue film scoring. Eventually, though, she realized she missed actually making physical things with her hands.
My buddy Jason Verlinde of The Fretboard Journal is back on the show, and this time we’re fresh off the Fretboard Summit in Chicago.
On this episode of The Tone Mob Podcast, I’m hanging out with Jeff Leavitt of Tone Ranger Guitars and Ben Matin of RestoWraps, two guys who have gone impressively deep into the worlds of guitar building, vintage gear restoration, and keeping perfectly good stuff out of the landfill.
