Not Quite “When Harry Met Sally”: When Scott Met Blake
Episode 38
Tuesday, 23 December, 2025
Gather round, children of the Spaghetti. From the vaults beneath the Shred Shed, Blake unearthed the ancient scrolls: Tone Mob episode 20, the first recorded encounter between Blake Wyland and Scott Marquart. Back when a “mobile rig” meant earbuds, an iPhone, and whatever flimsy connection the 3G overlords were willing to grant, these two met in the wild and immediately started talking like they’d been swapping gear opinions since the Bronze Age. What starts as “an hour about guitar strings” becomes the first domino in a very long, very weird chain reaction. Domino #1: this conversation turns an Instagram DM into a real friendship. Domino #2: that friendship turns into a business partnership, building Stringjoy side-by-side and spending the next decade on the phone like it’s a paid subscription service. Domino #3: after years of working together and talking music, gear, and life almost daily, the next obvious step was inevitable: Tape Spaghetti. Two guys with built-in chemistry, a backlog of shared lore, and way too many stories to keep trapped in business calls. Along the way in this time capsule: custom gauges, balanced tension, the case of the disappearing B string, gear hoarders vs. gear flippers, boutique weirdness, and the kind of sincere nerd-dom that accidentally becomes a career. And yes, the scrolls are old enough to include ambient fuel-lab echoes and the occasional ghost of a train drifting through the background like it demanded a writing credit. It’s not quite When Harry Met Sally… but it is the moment the map was drawn: Tone Mob led to Stringjoy, Stringjoy led to Tape Spaghetti, and now you’re listening to the genesis in real time.
