Welcome back to Kimock’s Corner!
We are mostly production oriented here, gear and instruments etc. and I might not get to every question but g’head and ask: we’ll publish anything I’ve got a useful answer for. Sound isn’t music, so we have some musical Q+A too. You know me and my fascination with the slidey stuff, so happy to entertain tuning and temperament, theory and technique discussion too. If you’ve a curious interest in, or love for music as I do, please don’t be shy. Happy to be here for y’all.
We had a similar intersection on the old website but the idea goes back to my youth by way of my Father, Joe Kimock, and a column he wrote by the same name. He used to let me proofread and edit his version of Kimock’s Corner, I was just a kid but I loved it and loved him for it.
In loving memory now.
PEACE, SK

Gear Talk - Guitars, Knobs & Nerdery
This space is for gear talk only. If it doesn’t plug in, power up, or shape sound, it probably doesn’t belong here. (As much as we love a good road story, this isn’t the place to ask if Steve remembers that one time in ‘87 when you shared a vending machine at a truck stop.) So keep it dialed, keep it geeky, and let’s talk tone.

Tuning & Process
Got questions that go beyond the gear? This is the space to talk shop about technique, practice rituals, alternate tunings, creative flow, improvisation, phrasing, and the weird beautiful ways we chase sound.

General Questions
Not sure where your question fits? This is your open jam. Whether you’re noodling on an idea, curious about something Kimock-related, or just trying to find the right thread to plug into — drop it here.
We can’t promise Steve remembers that one jam at the Fillmore in ’99, but if it’s thoughtful, curious, or kind, we’re all ears.

Too Much Stuff!
From the road to your rig. If you’re into gear with history, mojo, and a little road dust, you’re in the right place. Steve will occasionally post some pedals, amps, oddball boxes, and other sonic treasures looking for a second life. Please keep all questions focused on the items for sale. NOTE: Only Steve can start a topic on this board - users will be able to reply and interact once a topic is initiated.
