Rig Rundown: Dirty Honey's John Notto

  • Rock ’n’ roll has a long tradition of building on the work of previous stars and reinterpreting their influences. The Beatles honored the Isley Brothers, Elvis covered Little Richard … up to contemporaries like the Black Keys celebrating hill country blues beacons R. L. Burnside and Junior Kimbrough, and Greta Van Fleet echoing Led Zeppelin and Motown. Dirty Honey is reenergizing the hard-rock sound of the 1970s and sleazy Sunset swagger of the 1980s with their amalgamation of heroes that range from Prince and Queen to AC/DC and Guns N’ Roses.
    Before Dirty Honey’s headlining show at Nashville’s Marathon Music Works, PG’s Chris Kies popped onstage to witness the power and might of guitarist John Notto’s Appetite-ish assault. Notto shows off a pair of old-soul Les Pauls, explains his intermittent two-amp approach (and where he stole it from), and we enjoy a treat encounter with a very special ’burst.

    I saw Dirty Honey in Nashville on April 8th and John played that '59 all night, it sounded incredible, the whole band was amazing. If they're ever playing near you, I highly suggest going to a show, they are my favorite band making new music.

    I swear when I saw Dirty Honey last year in OKC, John Notto had a little guitar solo with just him shredding on the stage, and that experience was completely overwhelming. I swear it was like watching Slash play EVH licks. Looking back on the experience, it felt like I was the only one in the room with the guy just because of how affixed I was on him. Not even lying, I’ll tear up if I talk about it enough😂😂

    John sounds very grounded. I really hope he stays that way. I bought a 2022 Les Paul standard a few weeks back and having him
    talk so highly of these new standards makes me feel better about not going with the Custom shop for $7K i originally wanted.
    The standard was only $2700 which is a lot less expensive.

    I just saw Dirty Honey in Orlando a few weeks ago and they were fantastic. I got a chance to speak with John very briefly backstage and he seems like a really good dude. This was the exact set up he was using and he played the tobacco burst that night. He never changed guitars. They are really a phenomenal band live as well as recorded. On a sidenote, his speaking voice reminds me so much of the timbre and cadence of Michael Sweet from Stryper.

    The BIG question is: How is John getting that glorious vintage JCM rhythm crunch tone on his Marshall 1987 without either an attenuator/MV, gain pedal or added mod? Seem not feasible to get that tone without cranking it to the point of hearing loss :) and these guys are standing really close to the cab.

    9's and especially 8 gauge strings won't break and are much easier on your hand. People should know that the thiner the string the less tension so you can do anything you want to them. The only catch is you can't press as hard on the fretboard or they will bend slightly out of tune with high frets

      I think the Jube is only used as a solo feature, not as any kind of base sound? It sounds like it’s focused at a precise frequency, to compliment the 1987 and provide boost and cut for soloing/leads. By itself the Jube is lacking body and sweetness and very piercing with the harsh frequency it’s set to, but I guess that is where the 1987 is sitting?

      @@Sean0780 hm, honestly I don’t think so. When you hear Joe Bonamassas Rig Rundown, the SJ always sounds round and full by itself. never harsh or piercing. I guess it has a lot to do with the way it’s dialed in. I have the SJ myself and there’s a huge difference in sound depending how you dial it in.
