Don't they all play through Mesa amps?

Yea its pretty much Mesa boogies all around.  Not too sure about Carl's pedals tho'.  I think I know some of what he has but not the mfg--volume pedal, fuzz/overdrive, maybe a chorus too(?)

He's playing his Les Paul w/ Bigsby through a new Mesa Boogie Lonestar Amp and a Mesa 2X12 Cabinet.  That's the majority of the tone.  He's got Line 6 Delay modeler and a couple other pedals as well.

Now, does anyone remember Johnny's setup?  Just a curious "compare and contrast" kinda thing...not to suggest one is better than another...

greggy:
the first item is his amplifier for the guitar, a 2X12 cabinet means a speaker cabinet with 2 12" speakers (expressing the sound from the amp), the delay box is an effect similar to a chorus which broadens the sound of the signal coming from the guitar--giving it that "big wide open" sound that MMJ likes to build on.  I don't know the specifics of the circuitry in the box but that pretty much sums up the purpose.

I'm quite pleased that you don't :)

And thanks for the translation.
