His rig is not just a dirty little secret. its the holy grail of all secrets for any guitar player who loves that kind of live music. just hearing that live turned me into a total tone nut. His particular tone is the ultimate riddle. Nobody else has that fidelity of sound. It zones you out and makes time move slower. The only guitar player who can make his guitar sound like an orca whale singing melodies and then play chords without touching a fking thing and it sounds like a dinosaur chomping at you. I understand why its such a closely guarded secret but I wish he would let someone in a little bit on wtf that process is. I dont even want to replicate that rig, I just want to know how he even went about considering each iteration of improvements for each tour. This particular tour is so amazing. Changed my entire perspective on music. Rock music would be much better if more people had an understanding of how to achieve that fidelity of sound. Then again, in his position I’d never share it until I’m retired and not one day sooner. This man could retire tomorrow, start selling gear and create a whole industry if he wanted but he’s not a sellout
