Episode 32 - Zach Myers
Shinedown guitarist Zach Myers joins Tyler Larson and Jared James Nichols on The No Cover Charge Podcast for an honest, hilarious, and deeply insightful conversation about guitar, songwriting, and life on the road.
Zach shares stories from touring with Shinedown, working alongside Brent Smith, and learning firsthand from legends like B.B. King. They dive into tone vs. feel, why “less is more” still wins, the pressure of writing hit songs, and how great players like John Mayer balance technique with melody.
From gear talk (PRS, whammy pedals, and signature tones) to the reality of internet criticism and imposter syndrome, this episode is packed with real talk for guitar players and music fans alike.
🎸 If you're a fan of Shinedown or care about songwriting, tone, and what actually makes a great guitarist—this one’s for you.
