Dylan Adams is an immensely talented guitarist based out of Jacksonville, FL who has developed a rabid following on Instagram and YouTube for his virtuosic slide guitar playing and phrasing. He's also one of the nicest people I've talked to on the podcast and I really enjoyed getting to know him and his story!

Hope y'all enjoy this episode as much as I did!

Tune into the 40 Watt Podcast for a grounded, gear-focused conversation about the sounds that shape our world. This isn't just a rundown of news and new releases; it's a deep dive into the tools and techniques that actually create the music. We get into the specifics-the hum of a particular tube amp, the history behind a classic guitar model, the subtle magic of a well-placed effects pedal-and trace how these elements ripple out to influence both contemporary artists and the legendary recordings of the past. Through candid interviews with people who live and breathe music, alongside our own straightforward commentary, each episode connects the technical dots in a way that’s accessible to both players and passionate fans. The 40 Watt Podcast serves as a workshop and a listening room, exploring not only what we hear but how it came to be, making the craft behind the art form the central story. You'll come away with a richer appreciation for the decisions made in the studio and on the stage, hearing your favorite tracks with a new, more informed ear.
